Akampulira is a baby from Uganda. He is an only child to his mother. He loves eating rice and meat and drinking milk.
For one year, Akampulira has had a bilateral inguinal hernia. The hernia is increasing in size over time and is causing him discomfort. Fortunately, on March 21, he will undergo hernia repair surgery at our medical partner’s care center.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $249 to fund Akampulira’s surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably.
His mother says, “After surgery of my son I will continue farming and my son will grow with good health without having on and off evening and morning fevers.”

Akampulira underwent hernia repair surgery.
His hernia treatment was successful. He will no longer experience pain and will have improved quality of life. He is no longer at risk of the hernia twisting or blocking.
His mother says, “My son is now much better. He can play around the ward and he is breastfeeding well. I am already experiencing some peace of mind because he is getting better and because of the assistance I have received for his treatment. I have high hopes that now he is going to add some weight. After his recovery I will continue with farming in order to provide for my son. Thank you very much Watsi for your helping heart. God bless you.”
