Delifa is a 35-year-old woman from the Central Region village of Tsachiti in Malawi. Delifa and her husband have a small farm, and together they have three young children. When not helping her husband with their farm, Delifa does normal household duties, such as cooking and washing. When not working, she enjoys quiet time with her children.
Two months ago, Delifa developed an umbilical hernia, which has caused her weakness and pain. She went to our medical partner’s hub at Nkhoma Hospital. This is where she learned that she will need to get her hernia repaired to help ease her pain. Her treatment is scheduled for February 9.
However, her family cannot afford this procedure. Our medical partner, World Altering Medicine, is requesting $327 to help fund the repair. Delifa’s family is very happy that due to Watsi she will receive treatment and go on to live a full and normal life.
