contacting her but any of you should feel free to do so as well ok because I
can sense the pain and desperation here!

Subject: fro blind assocation

hello my name is Melissa dye im writing this email for my mother Bertha cox.
she is legally blind. we took her to the eye doctor last year and he said
she has cater-ax on both eyes. she has no type of medical insurance.ive
called some big hospitals in Columbus to see if there's any type of programs
that could help her get them removed so she can see again and because shes
not eligible for Ohio medicaid they cant help her. my mother no longer
cooks,picks  out her own clothes,and needs help with every day things. i
just want her to be able to see again and do her normal every day things
again.we lost our father is 2009 so all she really has is her kids and grand
kids and it would make her so happy again. she use to plant flowers,garden,
and make grave blankets. any help u could give us would be
greatly appreciated.we just want her to have the gift of sight again. you
can contact me at 740-856-8919 or Bertha at 740-753-9254. and
my email address is dyemelissa at yahoo.com.
