Long is a 21-year-old garment worker. He has one brother and one sister. They have a hard-working family, Long’s sister is a farmer and his brother is a construction worker.
In April 2018, Long was in a motor vehicle accident that caused head trauma and a left femur fracture. A nail was fixated to the femur to heal the fracture. Now, the bone is healed and the hardware needs to be removed to prevent future complications.
Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, can help. On November 3rd, Long will undergo a hardware removal procedure, which will cost $230. This procedure will allow him to walk easily again.
Long says, “I hope after the nail is removed my leg will be free of pain and I can recover soon.”
