“Dinesh was climbing on a wall with his friends in the school when he fell on the ground, fracturing his left hand,” explains our medical partner, Possible. Since then, his hand has swollen he has been in pain.
Fifteen-year-old Dinesh lives with his parents and siblings in Nepal. He’s in eighth grade. His father works in India to support the family while his mother stays at home, caring for her children.
As a result of his fracture, Dinesh needs help eating and getting dressed and isn’t able to be independent as he was before. His father walked for an entire day to reach Possible’s hub, Bayalpata Hospital, in search of care for his son.
For $195, we can fund orthopedic surgery to correct Dinest’s fracture and make sure his bone heals correctly. This will allow him to regain his independence and ensure he’s able to keep attending school.
