Herbert is a peasant farmer from Uganda who has been having a persistent pain on his back and headache due to a visible frontal swell. He fears that without treatment, he will continue struggling with persistent pain.
Previously, he tried seeking treatment but could not raise the funds needed for surgery. He came to our facility whereupon he received a lipoma diagnosis and had an excision recommended. However, he is still struggling with finances.
Herbert is a farmer who together with his wife tends to their small farm to meet the family demands of their five children. His children are in school making it hard to consolidate finances for his surgery.
Herbert traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On January 22nd, surgeons will remove the mass. Now, Herbert needs help to raise $187 to fund this procedure.
Herbert says, “I hope my surgery will go on well and I expect a better quality of health after I have fully recovered.”
