Bar Be is a 42-year-old woman who was diagnosed with molar pregnancy—a condition that happens when tissue that normally becomes a fetus instead becomes an abnormal growth in the uterus.
Four months ago, Bar Be started experiencing painful menstruation cycles and had lower back and abdominal pain. She then visited a clinic, where her pregnancy test came back positive but her ultrasound results showed differently. Doctors suggested that she undergo a hysterectomy. She was referred to our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund, for financial support.
Currently, Bar Be is experiencing back pain, chest pain, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, and trouble sleeping. Fortunately, she will undergo surgery on August 9. She is now seeking financial assistance to cover the $1,500 treatment cost.
“I feel guilty that I am not able to care for my family,” shares Bar Be. “I look forward to returning home after my treatment is complete.”
