Lemjini is a curious young boy from a pastoralist community in Tanzania. At only six years of age, he is the eldest of his two siblings. Lemjini is currently unable to attend school or assist his family with raising livestock due to an orthopedic condition. Lemjini has a condition known as genu valgus, or knock knees. This condition causes Lemjini's knees to angle inward while his lower legs angle outward. He was diagnosed at our medical partner's care center, Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre (ALMC). Walking has become difficult and painful for Lemjini. If left untreated, his condition will continue to worsen. Doctors at ALMC have recommended corrective surgery to repair his legs and allow for normal growth and development. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $940 for his procedure on February 22. Lemjini says, “I pray for my legs to be straight, and to be able to walk like the rest my family.”
