Sam Ath is a 68-year-old farmer with five sons and two daughters. He likes to read books on Buddhism in his free time.
In September, Sam Ath was in a motor vehicle collision that caused a fracture in his left forearm. He visited a Khmer traditional healer for treatment, but his symptoms did not improve. It became difficult for Sam Ath to use his arm, and he was in pain.
When Sam Ath learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled for four hours to seek treatment. On November 24, CSC surgeons performed an open reduction internal fixation procedure and bone graft to heal his fracture.
After recovery, Sam Ath should be able to use his left arm again. Now, he needs help to fund this $411 procedure.
“I hope to have a normal arm again and no pain,” he says.
