Ngwe is a 47-year-old woman from Thailand. She works on a farm.
Since May 2019, Ngwe has been experiencing tightness in her abdomen and other symptoms. She has been diagnosed with an ovarian tumor. She has been advised to undergo a total abdominal hysterectomy, the surgical removal of her uterus and cervix. If left untreated, Ngwe’s symptoms will continue to worsen and put her at risk for further health complications in the future.
Fortunately, Ngwe is scheduled to undergo her hysterectomy on August 13. Our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund, is requesting $1,500 to cover the total cost of her procedure and care. After surgery, Ngwe will be able to work again.
Ngwe said, “I will continue to work after I recover.”

Ngwe underwent gynecological surgery.
Since surgery, Ngwe feels like she is free from her bloated stomach although she still has pain at the site of her surgical wound. She no longer has pain in her back and her appetite has returned.
Ngwe said, “I would like to thank BCMF for paying for my surgery’s cost and to thank BCMF for giving me a new life. [Without their help] I would die from my illness. At present, I worry that I won’t have any food since I don’t have an income. My friend told me to go live with them if my employer does not let me stay on his land because I have to rest at home to take care of my wound for a couple of weeks.”
