I had diabetic retinopathy in both eyes which needed extensive care.

I broke my nose, shattered my orbital bone, broke all the bones on the left side of my face, and split my eye in half.

The hardest part has been looking in the mirror and seeing I don’t look like myself. Accepting the new me.

I was diagnosed with Uveitis when I was 9 years old. Uveitis is an inflammatory eye condition which causes painful flare ups with symptoms.

I was at a party with my family on July 4, 2021, when my life changed forever.
