Gregory Reese regained his vision after complications from
diabetes. He’s now embarked on a cross country bicycle ride
to raise awareness on diabetes prevention.
Cycling
for Sight
Gregory Reese had no way
to pay for sight-saving sur-
gery six years ago, when he
lost his vision due to diabe-
tes in his native New York.
Thanks to the generous help
of a Seattle doctor, who
agreed to perform major sur-
gery on Reese’s eyes if he
promised to bring his blood
sugar down, he can see again.
Now Reese is embarking
on a five week bicycle ride
across the country to raise
awareness of retina disease,
having left Portland Sunday
for New York City, on two
wheels.
Reese received the bike
from a donation from Oregon
City Subaru and plans to write
a book about retinopathy.
To support Reese’s writ-
ing, and help pay for lodging,
food, and bike repairs during
his journey, donate to his Go-
FundMe page: Cycling for
Sight Portland to New York.
