Katwiire is a farmer from Uganda. She is a widowed mother to five children, all of which are still in school. She grows food crops to feed her family and sells the surplus to generate income.
Katwiire has experienced swelling on her back for the past three years. She experiences a lot of discomfort and cannot sleep on the side of the mass. She traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On June 23, surgeons will remove the mass. Now, Katwiire needs help to raise $206 to fund this procedure.
Katwiire shared, “I hope that my health will improve after surgery so that I can sleep comfortably because this condition had really given me sleepless nights.”

Katwiire did not undergo surgery to remove a mass on her back.
Our medical partner shared that Katwiire did not return for surgery as she is now taking care of her mother who had surgery recently and there is no one else to help. She doesn’t feel she can have surgery anytime soon since her mother still needs her help, so our partner has requested that we close her case and support other patients in need. We hope to support Katwiire’s surgery in the future.
