Samuel is a 24-year-old young man from a small community in Kenya now living in Nairobi. He is not yet married and is the child of a single mother. Since Samuel’s mother is a farmer currently providing for his other three siblings, Samuel decided to move to Nairobi to lessen her financial burden.
On April 29, he accidentally fell and fractured the wrist joint of his left hand while working on a construction site. He visited the hospital and learned that he would need extensive orthopedic surgery. If he does not receive the operation soon, the joint will not heal correctly.
On May 11, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, will be conducting his procedure at Nazareth Hospital. Our partner is seeking $998 to fund his procedure, fourteen nights of hospital stay, as well as ten additional rehabilitation therapy sessions.
Samuel says, “I look forward to successful treatment so that I can be able to go back to my work and become self reliant.”
