Sokchan is a 38-year-old restaurant cleaner from Cambodia. She is married and lives in Kampong Thom with her husband and their two children. Her husband works in construction, their daughter works as a cleaner, and their son is in Grade 8. In her free time, she enjoys watching the news on her phone and watching movies. On September 6, 2025, Sokchan was struck by a car in a road traffic accident, causing a closed fracture of her left distal femur. She initially received traditional Khmer medicine for about two months, but her leg did not heal properly. Since then, she has experienced severe knee stiffness, significant limping, and shortening of her left leg. She now relies on a crutch to walk and struggles to move normally, making it difficult for her to return to work and carry out her daily activities. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On August 11th, Sokchan will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will help improve the alignment and length of her left leg and restore better movement in her knee. It will make walking easier and help her return to work and perform her daily activities more comfortably. Her family can contribute $75, but needs help raising $525 more to fund her procedure and care. Sokchan said, “I hope the treatment will improve the alignment and length of my left leg, make walking easier, and help me regain better movement so I can return to work and carry out my daily activities more comfortably.”
