Kuy Pheng is a 29-year-old married man from Cambodia. He likes to talk with his friends and watch TV in his free time.
When he was six years old, Kuy Pheng developed an ear infection in his left ear. The infection perforated his ear’s tympanic membrane. Since then, he has experienced ear discharge, hearing loss, and buzzing in his ear. Kuy Pheng was unhappy because it was difficult for him to hear.
When Kuy Pheng learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for one hour to seek treatment. On December 23, ENT surgeons at CSC performed a myringoplasty surgery on Kuy Pheng’s left ear to repair the perforated tympanic membrane and stop the discharge. Over time, his hearing will improve. Now, CSC is requesting $399 to fund this procedure.
“I hope that I can go to work and have good hearing,” says Kuy Pheng.
