This is Saw Win, a 44-year-old man originally from Burma. He now lives in Thailand and works as a pastor with a relief organization. Eleven years ago, San Win was beaten by the Burmese army and paralyzed. He recently developed a painful bladder stone that makes his everyday life even more difficult. It's hard for him to pass urine normally, and he sometimes loses control of his alimentary functions. San Win says he tries to stay positive despite these challenges, and that when he feels a lot of pain, he finds relief in his religion. For $1330, our medical partners can remove San Win's bladder stone and relieve his pain. He cannot afford this treatment on his own, but we can help. Let's make this happen for him!

This is Khin San, a 42-year-old woman living in Burma. A few months ago, Khin San had surgery to remove an ovarian cyst. She now has an incisional hernia, caused by an unhealed wound from a previous surgery. It causes sharp, stabbing pain, and she needs surgery to remove it. Khin San’s husband works as a day laborer, earning about $130 a month. The work is inconsistent, and he has had to take time off to care for Khin San since she has been in and out of the hospital. The local church has done a great deal to support the family with bills and medical expenses, and they are very connected to their faith. They say they are now relying on prayer to help them through this difficult time. The surgery Khin San needs costs $1,000. Once she undergoes treatment, doctors expect that she will return to life as normal, in good health. Let’s help Khin San get healthy!
