When you hear "benign tumor," you usually breathe a sigh of relief. But Ma Htwe's tumor is pressing on her optic nerve. In addition to causing severe headaches, eye pain, and a stiff neck, the tumor has caused her to lose vision in her right eye and destroyed her peripheral vision. Ma Htwe's left eye will be the next to go. But by funding a $1,500 surgery to remove the tumor, there's a good chance we can prevent that from happening and improve the vision she's lost. Ma Htwe’s husband is an agricultural day laborer who earns about $2 a day. When they need extra money, they borrow from a local money-lender at 5% interest. That's not a viable option to cover the cost of the surgery Ma Htwe needs to live a normal life again. Ma Htwe says that when she thinks about her health situation, she feels panicked, anxious and scared. When she has to buy medicine, she and her husband do not always have enough money for food. Let's show them that the world won't make them decide between basic healthcare and eating a meal.
