Pheng is an 11-year-old student from Cambodia. Pheng has two brothers and one sister. Her father is a construction worker. In her free time, Pheng enjoys reading books and playing with her sister.
One week ago, an insect entered Pheng’s left ear. Since then, she has been experiencing pain, along with a feeling of fullness, tinnitus, and itchiness in her ear.
Pheng traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On November 16th, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will remove the mass from her ear. Once healed, her symptoms will hopefully cease and she will no longer feel discomfort. Now, Pheng needs help to raise $231 to fund this procedure.
Pheng shared, “I hope the bug can be removed from my ear and I won’t be in pain anymore.”

Pheng underwent the removal of an insect from her ear.
Pheng and her parents traveled to our medical partner CSC, where surgeons removed foreign bodies from her ear. They found she had an insect that had lodged in her ear, which made it difficult for her, as it caused itchiness and fullness. Ear wax had also impacted the ear and her hearing. Pheng has now returned home and returned to school. She shared with us that she is glad to be back at school and would like to be a teacher when she grows up.
Her mother shared, “we are thankful to the staff, I am happy my daughter has stopped complaining about ear pain, ear tinnitus, and her hearing loss. She can go to school everyday without ear problems.”
