Deng is a 18-year-old student who lives with his mother and his three siblings. His mother works at a local restaurant and in town as a cleaner. His older brother is a construction worker, and Deng plans to start working along side him soon to help support his family. In his free time, he likes to play soccer with his friends.
In May, Deng was in a motor vehicle accident, where he injured his right ankle. His wound was dressed at a clinic, but now has become infected. Deng experiences constant pain and it is difficult for him to walk.
When Deng learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled across the country for six hours seeking treatment. On July 6th, surgeons at CSC will perform a skin graft procedure to help him walk easily again. Now, Deng needs help to fund this $474 procedure.
Deng shared, “I hope that I can heal quickly and begin work with my brother, so I can make more money for my family.”

Deng underwent a skin graft procedure.
Deng was involved in an accident which left him with chronic pain from an infection. He needed a skin graft, and he was finally able to receive care. Deng was able to return home after surgeons determined that he was healing properly. Due to the success of the procedure, he will no longer have a chronic infection and pain, and he will be able to walk again. The surgeons look forward to seeing him again in several months to track his improvements and make sure he fully heals.
Deng said: “I’m so happy with the results, and have hope that my leg will be free of pain and I can work to help support my life and my family. Thank you to CSC for improving my health.”
