Ah has a hole in her heart called an atrial septal defect. A 27-year-old migrant worker in Thailand, she and her husband work seasonally for $5 a day. Their combined income is enough to meet their basic needs, but leaves nothing to spare.
“Ah’s husband tells us that he is worried for his wife,” our medical partner writes. “He says her children are very young and he worries for their future if their mother cannot get treatment.”
$1500 is the difference between Ah receiving healthcare and not. When asked how she feels about her future, Ah tells her doctors, “what will be will be in this life,” and starts to cry when she’s told there are people who will help support her treatment. Let’s show her our support by funding her care today.

Ah is unfortunately not going to receive the treatment you funded, so we've just sent you a gift card in the amount of your donation.
Unexpectedly, after her medical care was funded on Watsi, Ah missed several appointments and is currently unreachable, despite our medical partner’s best efforts. Unfortunately, without the ability to contact Ah, they cannot treat her.
We are committed to transparently reporting all patient outcomes to you, so it’s important to us that you decide where your money goes next.
We’ve just emailed you a Watsi gift card for the same amount as your donation to Ah. We’d love for you to use this gift card to support another Watsi patient of your choice. But if you do not want to reallocate your donation to another patient, we’ll gladly refund your contribution.
Thanks again for supporting Watsi patients, we can’t tell you how much we appreciate it.
