Mugisa is a fisherman from Uganda. He is married and a father of four children.
For eight years, Mugisa has had an inguinal hernia. This hernia causes him weakness and pain and if not treated, the hernia may result in intestinal tissue damage and death. Fortunately, on May 15, he will undergo hernia repair surgery at our medical partner’s care center.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $249 to fund Mugisa’s surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably and confidently.
He says, “After surgery I will resume with my work of fishing.”
