Taing is a 15-year-old student from Cambodia. He has two brothers, four sisters, and he enjoys reading and listening to music.
Since Taing was born, he has had swelling of his right foot and ankle. His leg has gradually been increasing over time, and it is difficult for him to walk or wear shoes.
When Taing learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for seven hours seeking treatment. On March 17th, surgeons at CSC will perform a tumor excision and flap procedure so that he will be able to walk without difficulty, and will no longer feel any pain or discomfort. Taing will be able to be fitted normally with shoes again. Now, he needs help to fund this $657 procedure.
“I hope that my son recovers well from his surgery because he is very unhappy and I worry about him a lot.” -Taing’s Mother
