A loan helped to pay to recover her sight.


Diana Laura's story

Diana Laura is a woman who lives in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas. She is 44 years old, and she has been married to Gerardo for 26 years. She has six children. She devotes herself to the household, and Gerardo has been working as a messenger for a company for two years.

Some time ago Laura was diagnosed with a chronic, degenerative condition. She has now started to suffer from the impact of this illness. Little by little her vision has been affected to the degree that she now cannot see. The doctors tell her that she needs surgery that will allow her to recover her sight.

Unfortunately, she does not have enough resources to pay for that operation. That is why she requested a loan to be able to pay for the surgery and to recover her sight. This would help her to have a better quality of life.
