Nakimuli is a first-year nursing student from Uganda. Her best subjects in class are surgery and pediatric. Her parents are business people—her mother has a hotel, and her father sells dry foods including maize, beans, and cassava.
Since childhood, Nakimuli has had an umbilical hernia. If not treated, this could result in hernia twisting and blocking. Fortunately, on March 28, she will undergo hernia repair surgery at our medical partner’s care center.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $249 to fund Nakimuli’s surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow her to live more comfortably.
She says, “After surgery I will go for a thanks giving mass in church and I will continue with my studies without anything disturbing my health.”
