There are 9 month old twins who at such a young age are suffering from eye tumors. They were born prematurely at 34 weeks, which could possibly be a reason for the defects. It was hard for the parents to find this out, as these boys are so young that they aren’t able to tell that something is wrong with their eyes. They will be beginning chemotherapy soon to hopefully try save their sight.
It is terrible that these boys have to enter the world in this state. They will never be completely normal and will have to learn how to adapt to life. I am glad that they are receiving so much support from their parents and other people through a gofundme page. This contrasts with our history, because back then people were not able to easily accept money from strangers who wanted to help them out. They didn’t have the technology that we possess today which lets us become more involved in other people’s lives.
There's so much I wish I could do to help fix these problems. I hope they can find a cure for tumors.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine what these parents felt when they heard that news. It is something that will hold them back, but hopefully make them stronger in the end.

ReplyDeleteWow, this something so hard to endure so early in one's life. I do hope that their tumors are cured, and they can go about healthy lives. It's great to see people, strangers even, helping fund their medical costs. I hope for all the best for these babies to grow up healthily.
It's awful that these kids have to suffer at such a young age. I hope they find a way to lessen the negative impact the tumors have on these kids' lives.
