Komugisha is a farmer from Uganda who is married with two children: one in sixth grade and the other in seventh. Her husband is a motorcycle taxi driver.
Since three months ago, Komugisha has been experiencing inter-menstrual bleeding and pain. She has been diagnosed with Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding and Endometrial Hyperplasia. She needs to undergo a hysterectomy, a procedure in which surgeons will remove her uterus.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $219 to fund Komugisha’s surgery. On September 15th, she will undergo gynecological surgery at our medical partner’s care center. Once recovered, Komugisha will be able to resume her daily activities free of pain.
Komugisha says: “I will be grateful when I am supported. I will continue with farming when I am relieved from this burden.”

Komugisha had a successful total abdominal hysterectomy. After surgery she was feeling some limited pain on her surgical site, but she quickly improved. She is feeling very hopeful to live more happily as she no longer has all the symptoms she was experiencing. She’s eager to be home and have an improved quality of life as she recovers.
Komugisha shared, “I really need to appreciate you for the efforts you initiated for my surgery. If it hadn’t been your assistance financially, I would not have made it.”
