PROJECT: Andrew Patrick is a 4 month old baby who’s losing his sight. We are trying to bring him from his small town in Romania to the Williams Beaumont clinic in Detroit for an advanced consultation and a probable surgical intervention meant to give him back his eyes.
INITIATOR: Dana Sandu, Marketing Consultant, San Francisco
TIMING: October 29th- November 16th 2012
COLLABORATORS: Droom Boon
SCOPE: fundraise for at least part of the family’s expenses. Tentative goal: $2,500.
Andrew Patrick is searching for the light
UPDATE: money was raised and the family connected to the team in Detroit; housing was arranged and volunteers found to help them out with logistics on the field. Andrew was operated on and his vision restored to low, but functional levels (70% in one eye, 20% in the other).
