Elina is a 38-year-old woman from the Philippines and the devoted caretaker of her husband and nephew. For the past six months, Elina has experienced severe abdominal pain, which is preventing her from carrying out her normal work and enjoying her life.
An ultrasound facilitated by our medical partner revealed that Elina has nine centimeter cysts on both of her ovaries. While some women live with these types of cysts, cysts larger than five centimeters must be removed through surgery to prevent debilitating pain, bleeding, and other complications.
Elina’s husband works as a security guard, but he’s struggling to save enough money to pay for his wife’s $640 operation. With our help, Elina can get the care she needs to resume her normal life!
