Tim is a rice farmer from Cambodia. He has three sons, four daughters, and ten grandchildren. He likes to listening to monks pray on the radio.
Two years ago, Tim developed a cataract in each eye, causing him blurred vision and tearing. He has difficulty seeing things clearly, recognizing faces, and going anywhere outside.
When Tim learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for three and a half hours seeking treatment. On April 23, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and an intraocular lens implant in each eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Now, he needs help to fund this $398 procedure.
He says, “I want to go to the pagoda and be able to join in the ceremonies.”
