Birendra is a 16-year-old eighth grade student that lives with his parents and siblings in Nepal.
While his father works in India to support the family back home, Birendra keeps the family going by grazing the cattle and working on the farm with his brother. They are able to live off the yield from the field for about 5 months of the year, and the rest of the year they buy food from the market.
Three days ago, Birendra fractured his right hand while playing football. He is in immense pain and his hand is swollen. For $195, Birendra is able to receive treatment for his fractured arm.
Birendra says, “I am so happy that my treatment happens soon.”

Birendra successfully received surgery so he can use his hand again.
Birendra is doing great! His fractured bones were realigned correctly and secured in their right place. Post-surgery, Birendra is at home with his family resting. After a few weeks of resting, he’ll start physiotherapy to regain mobility, and will have to be careful and limit his mobility as he continues to heal. In time, he will be able to play and sleep with ease and will be able to go back to school. He will have no residual deformities.
“I am so thankful to everyone who helped for my treatment,” shares Birendra.
