Let's help Mike see again!

Anyone who knows Mike knows him to be an incredibly selfless, loving man. Mike has been through a great ordeal, losing his wife to cancer 2years ago Mike quit his day job as an auditor and became a stay at home dad to raise his 3 children.
At the age of 19 Mike was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa, a slowly degenerative disease that affects your light sensing cells, however his degree of visual loss was mild. Over the last few years Mike’s vision has reduced dramatically leaving him significantly visually impaired in both eyes. This has made it virtually impossible for him to look after and raise his kids alone. As his sister, seeing Mike lose his eyesight has caused such a massive strain on our family. Although Mike is a strong individual, not being able to independently look after his children and fulfil his promise to his late wife has created a considerable amount of damage to his personality, motivation and general mental health.
After conducting an immense amount of research into various treatments I have discovered Retinal Implants to be the best suited for him. This is a biomedical implant intended to partially restore useful vision to those who have lost their sight due to Retinitis Pigmentosa. This operation would be conducted in America and is a very costly procedure.
As his sister, and best friend I am trying anything and making it my duty to try and raise some money to surprise him with this operation in summer. I know this would change his world and mean everything to him. Please let’s make this happen!
Thank you everyone, wouldn’t be possible without you.
Kind regards, Dina and family x
