Immaculate, who is 35 years old, lives with her family in Uganda. She and her husband work as small-scale farmers, and together, they have three children. Immaculate is currently expecting her fourth child. As she delivered her first three children via Caesarean section, for the safety of both Immaculate and her baby, doctors are recommending that she deliver this child via a C-section as well. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is helping Immaculate undergo a C-section on May 11th at Karoli Lwanga Hospital, Nyakibale. This procedure will cost $252, and Immaculate needs your support to cover the cost. Immaculate says: “I am in financial difficulty, and I cannot afford this procedure. Therefore, I am appealing to the donors to help me with my operation. I will resume farming after the surgery to support my family."

Phearun is a 32-year-old mom of two from Cambodia. She is divorced from her husband and has a 12-year-old son and a 3-year-old daughter. Phearun stays home to care for her children and the cooking and cleaning of their home. She lives in northwestern Cambodia and traveled over five hours to reach our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC). Five months ago, Phearun was injured in a motor vehicle collision that fractured and dislocated her right hip. She underwent emergency surgery at a local hospital, but her hip is still dislocated. As a result, she is experiencing acute pain and has to walk with a walker, as she is unable to put any weight on her right leg. Doing so can cause secondary injuries to the surrounding blood vessels, nerves, ligaments, and tissues in her hip. She needs to undergo surgery to prevent long-term damage from his dislocation. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), can help. On February 14th, Phearun will undergo a fracture repair procedure to relieve her pain and allow her to walk independently again. CSC is requesting $483 to fund this procedure. Phearun said: "After surgery, I hope I can walk again and take care of my children."

39-year-old Sopheap lives with his wife and two young children in rural Pailin province in Cambodia. Both Sopheap and his wife farm potatoes, and sometimes rice, for extra income. In his free time, Sopheap likes to play volleyball in the village. In early March, Sopheap was in a motorbike accident and suffered an injury to his back. X-rays showed a C6-7 dislocation of the spine. Since the accident, Sopheap has not been able to work, experiences numbness in his arm, and is unable to sleep comfortably through the night due to his pain. Fortunately, our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), is helping Sopheap to receive treatment. On April 6th, doctors at Kien Khleang National Rehabilitation Centre will perform spinal surgery with implants to stabilize the spinal column. Now, Sopheap and his family need your help to raise $1,500 to fund the procedure and care. The money will cover the cost of hospitalization, surgery, implants, physical therapy, and medication. After recovery, Sopheap's condition should improve significantly, and he should have full mobility after four to eight weeks. Sopheap shared: "I want to be able to go back to work and support my family."
