Glorious is a farmer from Uganda. She is married to Nakalu and has one child. In her free time, she likes watching TV and participating in the village savings group.
Glorious is expecting her second child. Because she has had a previous C-section, Glorious’s doctors consider her pregnancy to be high-risk. They recommend that she receive medical attention before, during, and after labor to ensure a safe delivery. On April 16, she will begin to receive supplements and attend antenatal checkups and health education classes. She will deliver her baby in the hospital, and she will undergo a C-section if necessary. After birth, Glorious and her baby will be monitored by the hospital staff.
Glorious has contributed $7 to her treatment costs. Our medical partner, The Kellermann Foundation, is requesting an additional $241 to fund her care. The requested $241 pays for antenatal visits, lab tests, medication, and three nights of hospital stay.
Glorious says, “I thank the donors for supporting mothers. It is a mother’s wish to have a safe delivery, but most mothers do not get such support and can end up with complications.”
