Pheak is a 50-year-old proud father of nine children who has lived in Cambodia his entire life. He is a cheerful guy, despite having been through a lot of hardship in life.
When Pheak was 17 years old, he was near his home on the Vietnam border when a landmine exploded and injured his right leg. Pheak’s wounds were not treated properly, so he has spent most of his life in pain and unable to walk on his own.
To make matters more complicated, Pheak now has a severe bone infection that requires a below-the-knee amputation to treat. After this surgery, Pheak can be fitted with a prosthetic to enable him to walk.
For $225, we can help Pheak receive the surgery and prosthetic he needs to finally live a fully mobile life. This procedure will eliminate Pheak’s pain and allow him to move about more freely with his children, who are the lights of his life!
