Rightwell is a farmer from Malawi. Rightwell lives with his wife and their extended family. To supplement the family income, Rightwell raises goats and pigs. Rightwell is very devoted to his Christian faith, and in his free time he likes to preach and acts as a religious leader in his small community.
Since September 2017, Rightwell has been experiencing pain and urinary difficulty. 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 Rightwell’s surgery. On November 14, 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. Rightwell was thrilled to learn he would have funded surgery, and he is looking forward to resuming his farm work and preaching.
He says, “I thank you for this gift.”
