Chhun is 17 years old and in the 11th grade. He has one sister and two brothers. Chhun likes to read school books, do homework, and watch TV.
When he was a baby, Chhun received poorly administered injections in his right hip. This cause his hip muscles to contract and stiffen. He experiences pain and has difficulty walking.
After learning about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), Chhun traveled for four hours with his father to reach CSC for treatment. On October 21, surgeons performed a quadricepsplasty in his hip. This treatment should allow him to walk normally. Now, he needs help to fund this $425 procedure.
Chhun says, “I hope that I can walk better.”
