Meet Justice, a friendly twenty-two year old man from Uganda. Justice and his widowed mother live with her other children and grandchildren in a small farming village. When Justice was not in pain, he enjoyed running in the nearby hills.
Justice went to the hospital in considerable pain, and was advised that he has a strangulated hernia. His mother works, but her salary is not enough to pay for the hernia surgery. Justice has been unable to work because of the pain from his hernia.
For $229, Justice will undergo hernia repair surgery at Bwindi Community Hospital. After surgery, he hopes to find work so he can help support his mother and his young niece Mackilin, who lives with them.
“I want to say thank you very much to all the people helping me. It is a gift from God,” Justice shared.
