“It pains me to see my son suffer like this! I pray that he receives his treatment as soon as possible so that he can live a healthy life. I’ll appreciate any support towards his surgical care,” writes Lewis’s mother.
This little guy is Lewis, a seven-year-old boy living in Kenya as an only child to his single mother. He has a brain tumor, which causes severe headaches, a staggering gait, fatigue, and frequent vomiting.
“He was unable to attend school consistently during the last term because of the severe headaches,” writes our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation. Without treatment, Lewis is likely to suffer brain damage or even premature death.
Thankfully, with $1,260, AMHF will be able to provide the necessary surgery to treat Lewis’ tumor. He will finally be able to continue his education, and lead a normal life with his loving mother.
Let’s pitch in and get Lewis the help he needs!
