Kim is a 40-year-old farmer who is married and has three daughters who are all in school.
In 2016, Kim had an ear infection. This infection caused the eardrum in her right ear to perforate. For this reason, Kim experiences ear discharge, tinnitus, and poor hearing. She cannot communicate clearly with others, and she experiences chronic ear discharge.
Kim traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On July 21st, she will undergo an eardrum repair procedure in her right ear to close the perforation. Our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), is requesting $464 to fund this procedure. This covers medications, supplies, and inpatient care.
Kim shares, “I hope my ear pain and discharge will stop and my hearing can improve after surgery.”
