Ly is a soybean and corn farmer from Cambodia. He has six children, and in his free time he enjoys having a glass of wine with friends and helping to take care of his children and the housework.
In May 2019, Ly was in a traffic accident in Thailand, injuring his right foot and ankle. Ly received treatment at a hospital in Thailand, but since his return to Cambodia, his foot has not healed properly. His foot causes him swelling and pain, and he cannot walk easily without support.
When Ly learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, he traveled for eight hours seeking treatment. On August 5, surgeons at CSC will perform a skin graft procedure to allow his foot to heal properly and walk without support.. Now, Ly needs help to fund this $440 procedure.
He says, “I hope that my wound will heal and that there will no longer be any pain and I will be able to walk easily again.”
