75-year-old Pheng lives with her daughter in Takeo province in Cambodia. Because of chronic health issues, Pheng hasn’t been able to work for many years, and is supported by her daughter, who works in the rice fields.
On October 16th, Pheng fell at home, and fractured her left hip. As a result, she has difficulty walking, sitting and sleeping, and is in constant pain.
At the suggestion of one of her neighbors, Pheng sought help from our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre. She is now scheduled to undergo surgery at Kien Khleang National Rehabilitation Centre on October 18th, which will help restore her mobility and alleviate her pain.
