Help Joyce it's more than we thought.

Donation protected
Hi there my name is Andrea Guthrie and the beautiful woman in this picture is my mother-in-law. She is struggling with cataracts in both of her eyes and is losing her vision. Joyce is a woman with a giant heart of gold and helps anyone who may need it with no questions asked. Her health conditions are hard already being a severe diabetic, has kidney disease, and in 2019 battled throat cancer and with chemotherapy and radiation treatments she was able to conquer the cancer. Recently she has been having memory loss and seems confused quite frequently and could be hitting early stages of Alzheimer's but the chances of it becoming dementia can be reduced with this surgery. Her insurance will only cover so much leaving them paying near $3,000 for each eye. My in-laws are still struggling from cancer treatment bills. My father-in-law had to take time off work during treatments to care for her as she grew very weak and was unable to eat leading to a feeding tube. Then COVID hit in 2020 causing him to stay off work even longer. Please help us she doesn't want to lose memories of her grandbabies or never be able to see their beautiful faces again.

All money raised will be directly going to the cost of Joyce's surgery and to help with bills that will continue to accumulate during her recovery time, and my father-in-law will be off work to care for her. These two definitely would appreciate any help even if it is just sharing the page, they help anybody at all if they are asked.
