Samphors is a 40-year-old mother from Cambodia. She is married with two sons and one daughter. Samphors works as a cleaner, and in her free time she enjoys listening to music, watching TV, and cooking for her family.
In January 2017, Samphors fell off her motorbike and fractured her right forearm. She sought treatment at a local clinic, but could not afford the recommended surgery. Samphors’s arm has not improved, and she is pain.
On March 21, Samphors will undergo an open reduction internal fixation procedure to repair her arm. Our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, is asking for $411 to cover the cost of her surgery.
After treatment, Samphors will be able to use her arm again!

Samphors underwent fracture repair.
Surgeons at CSC fixated a plate for her radius and a plate for her ulna to stabilize her bones. A backslab cast was applied above the elbow to be used for 2 weeks for added support. Following the procedure, she was given pain medication. Her sutures were removed 2 weeks later and she began physiotherapy. Samphors is now able to use her right arm more easily than before and she does not experience any pain.
Samphors says, “I can use my arm better. Thanks to the staff at CSC and all of the donors for helping me.”
