72-year-old Grey lives in Malawi, and his life has been interrupted by the painful symptoms of an enlarged prostate. Because of his condition, Grey couldn't participate in the recent farming season, bringing food insecurity to his family. Grey supports his family as a subsistence farmer in Malawi. With his eight children and 14 grandchildren, being able to tend to his crops is incredibly important. To treat his condition and let him return to his daily life, Grey needs a prostate resection surgery to remove a part of his prostate and let him life without pain. The procedure costs $742 and Grey and his family are looking forward to the success of the operation, because he has suffered for so long. "Once the operation is done I will be a hopeful person and a happy person," Grey shares. "It has been a downfall in everything I do because of the situation."

This is Manfred, a grandfather from Malawi. He has six children and 21 grandchildren. Some of his family live nearby while others have moved away. Ever since October of last year, he has experienced painful urinary symptoms. Manfred suffers from benign prostatic hyperplasia. This condition leads to swelling of the prostate gland, partially blocking the urethra. The pain has limited his ability to operate the family farm and to build a house. Watsi's medical partner, World Altering Medicine, can provide Manfred with the surgical necessities, medications, and respite to resect a portion of the prostate. $742 in funding will cover all surgical expenses to remove excess tissue and treat prostate enlargement. After this surgery, Manfred will no longer need to worry about any prostrate-related pain. "Since I'm going to become well once the operation is done, I'm a happy person for that," Manfred said.
