La is a 47-year-old farmer who lives with his wife and three children. He normally works seasonally, and when he is not working he likes to play sports with his children, plant vegetables, and listen to the radio for news and shows about politics.
Six years ago, La was in a motor vehicle accident that caused multiple fractures in his left leg. His family brought him to a local government hospital, where doctors fixated hardware to heal his fracture. The bone healed well over the years, but the presence of the hardware puts him at risk of future complications.
Fortunately, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), can help. On August 3rd, La will undergo a hardware removal procedure, which will cost $230. This procedure will help him heal fully and walk in comfort. CSC is requesting $230 to fund the surgery.
La shares, “I am excited to feel no more pain in my leg, and to play with my kids in comfort again.”
