Koem is a vegetable seller from Cambodia. She has two sons and four daughters. She likes to read and spend time with her children.
Three years ago, she developed knee pain due to arthritis. She must rely on others to help her walk, and she is in chronic pain.
Fortunately, Koem learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre. At CSC, surgeons can perform a total knee replacement to relieve Koem of her pain and allow her to walk easily. Treatment is scheduled for October 18, and Koem needs help raising $1,025 to pay for this procedure.
