Granville Benjamin, a 43-year-old man, is facing the risk of losing his sight and the pension he has been working hard for due to an eye condition. He is in need of public assistance to get his life back on track.
For the past two years, Benjamin has been dealing with retinal detachment, a condition that requires multiple surgeries to restore normal vision. He mentioned that he can see lights but not shapes. He has already undergone one surgery, which cost him around $1.5 million, and now he needs another surgery that will cost $1.1 million.
Benjamin, who used to work for the Government and was also involved in music, was looking forward to his pension and starting his own business. However, his plans have been put on hold due to the need for another surgery. He expressed the difficulty of being out of work and the impact it has had on his life.
His vision problems began while he was working at the Jamaica Post office. He noticed issues with his vision and sought help after realizing that he couldn’t read the names on parcels. His supervisor granted him time off to seek medical attention, and he was advised to see a specialist for further evaluation.
The upcoming surgery that Benjamin needs will involve the removal of oil bubbles from his eyes. He expressed his worries about raising the necessary funds and the fear of losing his eyesight completely.
As a musician, Benjamin is reaching out to the public for assistance in funding the surgery. He can be contacted via email at [email protected] or by telephone at (876)410-6701.
Valerie Cowan, a retired individual who knows Benjamin from work, shared her concern for his situation. She described him as a vibrant, hard-working, and ambitious individual and expressed her determination to help him get the necessary support for the surgery.
Cowan emphasized the importance of Benjamin’s contribution to the world and appealed to the public to assist him in regaining his sight and returning to work.
Readers are encouraged to reach out to Benjamin and offer support as he seeks to overcome his vision challenges and resume his normal life.
