Lucy is a housewife from Kenya. Lucy used to sell foodstuffs but stopped because of her medical condition. The family now fully depends on her husband who works as a casual laborer on construction sites to pay rent and college fees for their two children.
Four months ago, Lucy began to experience severe abdominal pain and a backache. She has been diagnosed with a pelvic mass. She needs to undergo a hysterectomy, a procedure in which surgeons will remove her uterus.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $756 to fund Lucy’s surgery. On July 16th, she will undergo gynecological surgery at our medical partner’s care center. Once recovered, Lucy will be able to resume her daily activities free of pain.
Lucy shared, “I hope I get assistance. I really want to get well soon and help my husband raise our family.”
