Chanly has four sons, two daughters, and twelve grandchildren. In the rainy season she farms rice. In her free time she enjoys listening to the news on the radio and playing with her grandchildren.
Chanly fell on her left arm causing an elbow dislocation. She took painkillers for a while but the pain never went away. She came to Children’s Surgical Centre when the condition worsened. She is unable to work because she can not bend her left arm at all. An open reduction surgery of her left elbow will treat her recurrent dislocation and pain. She will be able to use her arm again.
“I hope that the surgery will be done well so I can return to the rice field and do some housework too,” Chanly said.

Her husband also told Watsi, “I am glad that my wife’s hand is better after her surgery. She can eat food by herself, carry things, and will not have anymore pain.”
