Kanyada is a farmer from Malawi. He lives with his wife, and together with their grown children they run a small farm. Kanyada spends his days tending his land and raising goats. In his free time he likes to attend his local church and worship with his family.
Since December 2017, Kanyada has been experiencing pain and urinary diffiulty. These symptoms are caused by an enlarged prostate, a condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia. He needs to undergo a prostate resection surgery, a procedure in which surgeons will remove part of the enlarged gland.
Our medical partner, World Altering Medicine, is requesting $733 to fund Kanyada’s surgery. On June 7, he will undergo prostate surgery at Nkhoma Hospital, our medical partner’s care center. The requested money pays for supplies, medications, and two weeks of hospital stay. Kanyada was thrilled to find out his surgery would be funded, and he is looking forward to once again being active.
He says, “Thank you.”
