Rathana is a 25-year-old microfinance credit officer. He is the only child in his family, and his parents passed away when he was young. Now he lives with his uncle, who works as a farmer. In this free time, Rathana likes to play football with his friends.
In October, Rathana was in a motor vehicle accident that caused a closed fracture of his left forearm. After the accident, he received a bamboo splint from a Khmer traditional healer. Rathana continues to experience chronic pain and difficulty moving his arm, so his neighbor recommended visiting our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC).
On November 2nd, Rathana will undergo a fracture repair procedure at CSC. After surgery, he will be able to move his arm easily again. CSC is requesting $465 to help fund this procedure.
Rathana shared, “I hope my left arm heals soon so I can return to work and be free of pain.”
