Free Cornea Transplant in Sorocaba-Sao Paulo

I just received an email from Gil's mother today.
I copied and pasted the original below in case you want to copy and paste it on your facebook page to help spread the news.
Sorocaba is a middle sized city about 1 hour west of Sao Paulo Metropolitan area.
This is a Hospital managed by the Masons in that city. It is a non-profit Hospital.
They have an agreement with the Brazilian version of Medicaid/Medicare to cover the cost of the surgeries.
The Hospital has capacity for 300 hundred cornea transplants per month but it is only performing about 120 cornea transplants per month because not enough people know about it.
It is totally FREE, no charge what so ever, 1st world health care provided for anyone who needs it.
Please help spread the news, they are actually having to dispose of the donated corneas that are not used every month and we know there must be people out there in need of it who don't know about this precious opportunity.
Below is the text in Portuguese if you decide to post it somewhere or email some folks.
Thank you for your help.

  2. A hernia is an opening or weakness in the muscular structure of the wall of the abdomen. This defect causes a bulging of the abdominal wall. This bulging is usually more noticeable when the abdominal muscles are tightened, thereby increasing the pressure in the abdomen. Any activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure can worsen a hernia; examples of such activities are lifting, coughing, or even straining to have a bowel movement.
