Pheareach is a 5-year-old preschool student from Cambodia. He has one older brother who is in 6th grade. His parents are constructions workers in Malaysia, so Pheareach lives with his grandmother who is a farmer.
A mass on the right side of Pheareach’s neck appeared two years ago. The mass is slow growing and does not cause pain, however it does limit some motion. It is difficult for him to rotate his neck or bend it to the left. If the tumor continues to grow it may cause pain and further limit his neck’s range of motion.
Pheareach and his grandmother traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. Surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will remove the mass. Now, Pheareach needs help to raise $231 to fund this procedure.
His grandmother said, “I hope the mass can be removed in surgery so his neck will be normal and he will be healthy.”
