Five-year-old Ishara lives with her parents and siblings in Nepal. Her family depends on agriculture for a living and grows enough food to keep them fed for about three months a year.
Ishara was playing with her friends when she slipped on the mud and broke her right hand. It has been hurting since then and her hand has considerably swollen.
She was taken to the health post near her village, but was referred to Possible’s hub, Bayalpata Hospital, for a surgical treatment. It took her family nearly two days to reach the hospital from her house.
As a result of her injury, Ishara needs help with her everyday work like eating and getting dressed. For $541, we can fund orthopedic surgery to correct her fractured hand, as well as physiotherapy to help her regain full range of motion.
Ishara’s mother shared: “I hope my daughter’s hand is treated soon so that she is free of pain.”

Ishara successfully was treated for her broken hand.
Ishara is doing great! Her fractured bones were realigned correctly and secured in their right place. Post-surgery, Ishara is at home with her family resting. She says that she has been experiencing some pain, but it is under control with the prescribed medication. After a few weeks of resting, she’ll start physiotherapy to regain mobility, and will have to be careful and limit her mobility as she continues to heal. Her family is so happy to have her home, and is hopeful for her full recovery.
Her father says, “I am so happy that she is getting better.”
