Meet Marietta, a 56-year-old widow from the Philippines who lives with her father. Marietta loves to work in the church and garden flowers. She also takes care of her father.
Marietta currently experiences neck swelling and discomfort. This is often accompanied by severe pain that prevents her from doing household chores or taking good care of her father.
Marietta went for a consultation and was diagnosed with goiter, an abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland. $91 will fund her thyroidectomy - a surgical removal of the thyroid gland.
After Marietta’s treatment, she looks forward to working with ease and taking care of her father with less difficulty. In Marietta’s own words, “I hope that through this medical mission and by your help my illness will be treated. Thank you for this opportunity to have this surgery for free. May you be blessed in all you do and may you help more people just like me.”
