Mafedwe is a 63-year-old woman from a village in Malawi. Mafedwe is a widow and lives with one of her four children. She spends her time washing, cooking, and helping to care for her grandchildren. When she is not working, Mafedwe likes to go to church and worship with her friends.
For the past month, Mafedwe has been having bleeding and abdominal pain in a private area. It was discovered she has severe uterine fibroids and needs a hysterectomy.
Fortunately, with the help of our medical partner, World Altering Medicine, Mafedwe is scheduled to receive her treatment on March 9.
Mafedwe is looking forward to having her operation and going back to her family and grandchildren without pain and discomfort.
