Grayson is a 18 month old baby from Kenya and the second born of two children. He lives with his parents and elder sister in a one-room house near Nairobi. His mother is a full-time mom while his father is employed casually as an electrician. With a very limited income, Grayson’s father can only raise $50 for his treatment which is not enough to cover the surgery needed.
Grayson was diagnosed with cryptorchidism, a condition in which both of the testicles remains undescended. If left untreated, Grayson has an increased risk of developing hernias, testicular cancer, and fertility problems in the future.
Grayson will be receiving assistance from our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation (AMHF). Fortunately, he is scheduled to undergo corrective surgery on February 21st. AMHF is requesting $542 to support the cost of his procedure and care.
“Please help us raise the funds needed,” says Grayson’s mother.
