Teresiah is a 27-year-old woman from Kenya. A mother of one, she works in a hair salon while her husband works as a casual laborer.
Teresiah has been living with thyroid cancer for the past two years. If left untreated, it will likely cause organ failure, even becoming life threatening. In order to remove the cancer, she will require a thyroidectomy (partial or entire removal of her thyroid).
“Right now I am doing fine,” Teresiah says, “But the doctors say that a time is coming when I will not be okay. I fear for my baby should that time come.”
Let’s help Teresiah get the $900 needed for her to live a normal, productive life!
