Pinit is a 24-year-old soldier from Cambodia. He lives with his parents, his grandparents, and two younger brothers in Kampong Speu province. When not working, he likes to play football and go fishing. Pinit fractured his left clavicle a little over a year ago when playing football with his friends. He had an open reduction internal fixation at a government hospital in Pnom Penh. His fracture has healed, but he still feels a chronic ache in his shoulder and neck. He is not able to perform some of the required activities for soldiers. Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, can help. On December 13th, Pinit will undergo a hardware removal procedure, which will cost $304. The chronic ache will disappear along with his risk of infection and he can return to full activity in his day-to-day life. Pinit shared: "I would like to get back to my full strength, and I hope taking out the metal will help me to get strong again."

Molly is a 50-year-old wife and mother, living in Uganda. She and her husband - both of whom are small scale farmers - have five children, ranging in age from nine to twenty years. For the past year, Molly has been experiencing severe low abdominal pains and other worrying symptoms. She was diagnosed with uterine fibroids, and provided with various medications to help with her condition. Nothing has proven to be effective, so Molly will need to undergo a hysterectomy, to have her uterus removed. Molly and her husband work hard, but do not often earn enough money to cover their basic, daily expenses. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is seeking your help to fund Molly's surgery, which will take place on November 4th at Rushoroza Hospital, and cost $319. After she has recovered, Molly should be able to resume her life, free of her current symptoms. Molly says: “I hope to get treated through surgery. I can no longer do my day-to-day duties well. Once I am feeling better I want to be able to keep farming and provide for my family."

Prossy is a small-scale farmer and mother of two from Uganda. This is her fourth pregnancy. Prossy left school after secondary school due to a lack of funds to pay for her school fees. Her husband is a boda boda (motorcycle) driver who transports luggage around their village to earn a living for the family. They own a three-room mud home that is a few kilometers away from Rushoroza Hospital and have been using motorcycles to access the hospital's services. During her free time, Prossy enjoys spending time with her children. Prossy is currently expecting her third child. She shared that her first pregnancy resulted in an intrauterine fetal death and her doctors recommend that she deliver via a Caesarean section because of her history. This way, doctors can ensure the safety of both mother and child. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is helping Prossy undergo a C-Section on September 27th. This procedure will cost $214, and Prossy's family needs your support. Prossy says, “I pray that I may have a successful surgery with a positive outcome. I will keep farming after I heal so I can support my family.”
