Sopheaktra is a 2-year-old boy from Cambodia. He enjoys watching cartoons on television, and playing with his toys.
When he was eight months old, Sopheakra burned his left hand on hot water. He cannot use any of his fingers or carry anything in his left hand.
When Sopheaktra learned about our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, his family traveled for one and a half hours seeking treatment.
