30-year-old Bharat lives in Nepal with his wife and two daughters. He and his wife work as farmers, and in his free time Bharat likes to sing and share stories with his two young daughters.
A year ago, Bharat fractured his leg. “He was bathing in the outdoor tap when he slipped on the mossy floor,” reports our medical partner, Possible. Fortunately, Bharat was able to receive surgery, and doctors used an implant to keep his left femur bones properly aligned while they healed. “He did a lot of physiotherapy exercise and no longer has difficulty doing basic activities,” Possible explains.
Although Bharat has regained function of his leg, walking long distances still causes him pain. For $579, surgeons will remove the implant in his leg so that Bharat can fully complete his recovery. Then he will be able to return home with full use of his leg.
“I’d like my surgery to go well so that I can return to my work,” shares Bharat.
