Kyle Needs a New Prosthetic Eye

Donation protected
My 10 year old son needs a new prosthetic eye, and we are trying to raise $5,000.00 to cover the costs to make a new prosethic eye before his August 2, 2018 appointment.

When Kyle was 7 years old, he lost the sight in his left eye. After going to the eye doctor, and seeing specialists, we had to go to Cleveland Clinic. After many tests and an MRI, we learned that Kyle had a tumor growing in his eye. The tumor destroyed the optic nerve and the retina in his eye. Initially, the doctor thought the tumor was cancerous, and removed Kyle's eye. Thankfully, it was determined that the tumor was not cancerous. 

Kyle needs a new prosthetic eye because he has grown and the eye he has doesn't fit properly anymore. The insurance company does NOT have an in-network provider, so the procedure is being processed as an out-of-network claim. The occularist wants $5,000.00 in order to make the new prosthetic.  We are asking for donations to help pay for the new eye because we don't have the money. It is very upsetting because this is my son and I can't provide what he needs!

Thanks to those of you who have donated & shared our cause. We appreciate everything!! Please keep sharing!
