Hello, I have written this letter to request for financial aid to help my grandmother proceed with her eye operation that is required for her cataract. As of now, she is legally blind due to her not being able to see things that much on the grounds of her cloudy eyes. With the bill possibly reaching thousands, we will greatly appreciate it if some help can be given to us as regards this dilemma.
