Virginia is a loving single mother. She works at a hardware store to support herself and her daughter, earning just enough to get by.
Last year, Virginia began to experience severe abdominal bleeding and pain. Not wanting to miss a beat, she ignored her symptoms. But eventually, she became so weak she could no longer work.
Doctors diagnosed Virginia with large fibroids and say she needs surgery to remove them. Her family was able to raise $250 to contribute toward her medical bills, and Africa Mission Healthcare Foundation is requesting the remaining $900 from Watsi donors.
After her surgery, Virginia plans to start a small business so she can send her young daughter to school. Virginia loves her daughter and “hopes that she will grow up to be independent and successful.” Let’s make sure she’s healthy enough to make it happen!
