Korn lives with her sister and works as a rice farmer. She enjoys cooking and planting vegetables.
In January 2021, Korn was knocked to the ground by a cow. She spent a month going to a Khmer traditional healer where natural medicine was given to her, but the fracture on her right wrist and the dislocation of her right elbow did not heal. A friend in her village recommended for Korn to visit our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC). She was able to visit the hospital and now surgeons want to perform an open reduction procedure on her right elbow to heal her injuries. Our medical partner CSC is requesting $412 for the surgery to allow Korn to use her right arm again.
Korn said, “I hope I can bend my elbow like normal again.”

Korn underwent a fracture repair so she can use her right arm.
Korn had a smooth operation and was able to return to her village soon after. She will recuperate for a few weeks while her arm heals, and she’s relieved she can return to supporting her family on their farm. She has decided to stay away from the cows as much as possible!
Her sister shared, “I’m excited to see my sister doing well after her pain for so many months. Thank you to all the donors who helped so that she could have this operation.”
