Sokhorm is a 36-year-old farmer who lives with his wife, two sons, and one daughter in Cambodia. He enjoys watching TV, working in the field, and listening to radio news.
In April of 2014, Sokhorm was in a car accident that caused an open fracture of his left femur and knee stiffness. His wound and fracture have healed, but the knee stiffness remains. He can’t bend his left leg because the muscle is scarred and contracted.
Sokhorm traveled three hours with his wife to reach Watsi’s medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), for treatment.
For $425, surgeons at CSC will perform a quadricep release operation on his left thigh. Post-surgery, Sokhorm will be able to bend his leg easily again. He will not have any difficulty walking.

Sokhorm successfully received treatment to help him walk again.
In April of 2014, Sokhorm was in a car accident that caused an open fracture of his left femur and knee stiffness. His wound and fracture healed, but his knee stiffness had remained ever since. As a result, it required surgery for Sokhorm to be able to bend his left leg again.
Today, Sokhorm’s doing great! After his surgery, he spent two weeks in physiotherapy to regain his mobility. He says now that he’s feeling much better and can now walk normally without pain. If Sokhorm has any problems, he can return to the medical center at any point for free treatment.
“I am happy with the result. I can walk normally and without pain,” says Sokhorm. “Thank you for helping me.”
