David is a farmer from Kenya. He is a father of six. He is a hardworking man and has tried his best to educate his children.
A month ago, David was busy preparing his land for planting when he began to feel pain. He used painkillers, but the pain persisted. David later noticed a swelling on his abdomen.
David has a right inguinal hernia. The hernia causes him pain and is affecting his ability to work on his farm. Fortunately, on May 2, he will undergo repair surgery at our medical partner's care center.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $384 to fund David's surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably.
David says, “My hand was healing, I had just started preparing my farm for planting when I felt frequent pain when on my lower abdomen."
