Abaho is a child from Uganda. He is the firstborn in a family of two children, and has a younger brother who is still too young for school. His father operates a banana and coffee plantation together with his wife to make a living for their family.
About one year ago, Abaho was diagnosed with a hydrocele, which is a swelling in a sensitive area. This hydrocele causes him weakness, pain, and discomfort as the swelling increases in size. Fortunately, on November 24th, he will undergo hydrocele repair surgery at our medical partner’s care center.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $146 to fund Abaho’s surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably and confidently, and significantly improve his quality of life.
Abaho’s father shared, “I hope my son will get better once he receives the surgery through your support. I think he will be able to continue with growing and learning without any other worries.”
