Sai Nob is a 38-year-old fisherwoman with two sons. She likes to plant vegetables and cook for her family.
In June, Sai Nob was in a motor vehicle collision that caused a fracture in her left forearm. She visited a Khmer traditional healer for treatment, but her symptoms did not improve. Since then, Sai Nob has experienced pain when lifting objects and working.
When Sai Nob learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), she traveled for four hours to seek treatment. On November 23, CSC surgeons performed an open reduction internal fixation procedure to heal her fracture.
After recovery, Sai Nob should be able to work again. Now, she needs help to fund this $411 procedure.
