Patience Boafo added:

Sorry to hear Eritten and Jennifer's story however I'm surprised Neurosurgeons and ophthalmologists in Ghana couldn't help save their sights. Maybe they might have had a problem with their occipital lobes in the brain region, affecting the optical nerves. Erriten/Jennifer don't give up. Keep on seeking knowledge and reach out to health charities for support. Inspiring stories
