Leang Hor is a 18-year-old construction worker from Cambodia. He has one brother and one sister and is the eldest child in his family. Leang Hor's mother is a factory worker and his father is a tuk tuk driver. In his free time, Leang Hor enjoys playing football, listening to music, and meeting with his friends in the evening.
In 2019, Leang Hor was in a motor vehicle accident that caused a closed fracture of his left leg. He went to government hospital where plate screws were put into his fractured left tibia. Since the bone is now healed and there is no infection, the hardware can now be removed.
On November 16th, Leang Hor will undergo a hardware removal procedure, which will cost $230. Surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, will remove the screws from his leg to prevent future complications. Once recovered, he will be able to walk normally.
Leang Hor shared, "I hope I will heal quickly from the surgery so I can return to work."
