Zebra is a 76-year-old Malawian man. He lives with his wife, and they have eight children and eleven grandchildren. Zebra’s children tend to the family farm, and he spends most of his days fetching firewood. He especially loves spending time with his grandchildren and telling them stories.
Three weeks ago, Zebra started having severe swelling in his groin, and he was diagnosed with a hydrocele, which can be easily repaired with surgery. Zebra went to our medical partner’s care center, Nkhoma Hospital, where he learned that he will need surgery on May 4. Our medical partner is requesting $302 in funding.
Zebra is excited to have his surgery, and his family is very happy that he will soon be back with them and in better health.
“I have hope for a great operation. Thank you, Watsi,” says Zebra.
