My name is Laura Torres I am 46 years old. I have diabetes and for 10 years I have been struggling with cataracts in both of my eyes. I have no money, no health insurance for the surgery.

I want to be able to move on and work, I need to be healthy to help my children with their schooling, they are the most important thing for me.

Through Clinica Sierra Vista and thanks to a nurse who works there I found CSF, and I am very grateful. I was very afraid of losing my sight completely.

I decided to apply to the Foundation of CSF Surgery from where after a while they called me to tell me that I qualified for financial aid. I remember that I was at work and shouted from the emotion that I felt, my colleagues asked me what had happened, and I told them that soon they would operate me and I would see better again.

Now my surgery is over, and I am healthy, I feel very good. I want to thank everyone who made my dream possible, thanks to Clinica Sierra Vista for telling me about CSF Foundation. Thank God I see even more! (Laughter) Thank you to all the donors because without them, I could not have had my surgery. Thank you all very much, God bless you. And you too should say help us!
