Last year my son had an accident that caused him to have six surgeries.  He was three at the time.  He is now about to turn five in January.  Our surgeon refused to do the needed surgery in March of this year.  He needs the damaged eye taken out and a little more plastic surgery.  And he needs a prosthetic.  And we have a ton of medical bills from last year because the day after Cade's accident I gave birth to Colin.  I was due but it was very hard to leave one child to have another. 

Since our regular surgeon refused to do Cade's surgery that was highly recommended from our other doctor I have done some research and found a great doctor.  He does agree with our other doctor that Cade needs a prosthetic asap!  His socket is retracting.  Because his eye is atrophied and will continue to shrink.  He has no sight in it.  His eye was completely cut in half when the dolly fell on him.  So everything in his eye was extruded.  And he is in pain off and on with it because it has soooo much scar tissue in it.  The doctor that I found that will be doing the surgery is in Naples, Florida.  I have been in contact with him for the last year.  He has checked on Cade regularly.  And when I first talked with him he told me the first step to healing emotionally and physically would be to get Cade's a prosthetic.  And get his appearance as close to his old self as possible.  He just really shows he cares for Cade.  As  our good doctor also does. 

Some friends of ours have decided to do a benefit auction for Cade.  But they haven't had as much success as they thought they would with collecting items.  So I am asking you moms to please vote this popular.  Maybe you ladies have something you don't want anymore or don't use anymore that you would like to donate.  We are in desparate need of items to auction off.  please message me if you are interested.  WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT!!  The money raised will be for Cade's next surgeries in Naples, Florida.  We are currently in Mississippi.  Please message me if you have any questions  or any ideas!!  Oh yeah and vote POP!!  PLEASE!!
