Thira is a 27-year old man living in Cambodia with his two daughters. He has been working on a fishing boat in Thailand since he was 15.
One evening, while riding his motorcycle along the coast, Thira got into an accident and broke his left arm. He was unable to afford treatment in Thailand, so he sought treatment from his village healer in Cambodia. Unfortunately, the treatment was unsuccessful and now Thira is unable to use his arm.
