Gloria is a 27-year-old woman from Uganda, and is pregnant with her second child.
Our medical partner, the Kellermann Foundation (KF), shares that Gloria and her husband are very excited about her pregnancy and have already picked a name for their new baby.
According to KF, “Gloria is a high-risk mother who has had five pregnancies but only one living child, who was delivered by C-section.” KF recommends that Gloria undergo another Cesarean section for her current pregnancy. Since Gloria is a high-risk patient, KF also recommends additional prenatal care.
For $303, Gloria will undergo a Cesarean section. This will also fund all of Gloria’s hospital care, including a five day stay after she delivers her baby. KF expects that with this treatment, both Gloria and her child will be healthy.
Gloria and her husband plan to access family planning services after childbirth. KF shares, “Their hope is for their baby to be healthy and study well in school.”
