Ntambi is a light-hearted grandmother who staff at AMHF say, “has numerous stories to tell.” Ntambi has been blind as a result of cataracts for the last ten years, but had no idea that her condition was curable.
Ntambi says she began experiencing difficulty seeing years ago, but had no money to seek medical attention. Ntambi continued on with her life, hoping that her challenges in sight were only temporary, but as her condition worsened, she became almost completely dependent on her daughter. As an extremely independent lady, Ntambi is “extremely bothered” by her dependency.
She is thrilled that it’s possible for her to regain her sight. AMHF staff say, “She cannot believe that she has the chance to start to see again!” $375 will completely cover the cost of Ntambi’s cataract surgery.
