Sina is a 22-year-old woman from Cambodia with chronic otitis media, a condition where the middle of her ear is inflamed. Since her left ear drum is perforated, “Sina has recurrent discharge from her ear,” our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), reports. “She has been dealing with this for six years and it causes her constant discomfort and hearing loss,” CSC continues. “Sina is a university student and the youngest of four sisters, and in her free time she enjoys drawing pictures and reading books.” Sina needs a myringoplasty for $399 -- a surgical procedure to close the perforation of her eardrum. With surgery, "Sina will no longer have discharge from her left ear and her hearing will slowly return," says CSC. Sina’s younger sister says she is worried about Sina “because she cannot hear the teachers clearly, even if she sits at the front of the room.” With this treatment Sina will be able to continue at school with improved hearing.
