Rin is a 75-year-old woman from Cambodia with five sons and two daughters. She enjoys staying home and looking after her grandchildren.
30 years ago, Rin began developing a large mass located in the right occipito-temporal area. In the last two weeks or so, the mass has reached a debilitating size and has become quite painful. Rin traveled four hours with her daughter to reach Watsi’s medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, for treatment.
Rin requires a $392 excision and flap surgery to excise the large mass. A surgeon will remove the mass, and through reconstructive plastic surgery, Rin will receive a donor skin tissue with all necessary major blood vessels. The procedure will alleviate her pain and discomfort.
With our support, Rin can return home to her children and grandchildren in good health.

After traveling for four hours to reach Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), Sarun’s excision and flap surgery was a great success! Rin is now at home resting with her children and grandchildren, and has shared that her wound is healing well. She says she no longer feels the pain that limited her so much before.
“I’m really happy with the result of my mom’s operation,” shares Rin’s daughter, “Now she isn’t in pain anymore. Thank you.”
