Lucy is a farmer from Kenya. She is married and a mother of an 11-month-old baby.
Lucy has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Without treatment, the cancer may spread to other organs. A mastectomy, a surgery to remove breast tissue, has been suggested to rid her body of breast cancer and to prevent the cancer from metastasizing.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $816 to cover the cost of a mastectomy for Lucy. The procedure is scheduled to take place on March 12. After treatment, Lucy will hopefully return to a cancer-free life.
Lucy says, “I wish to be there and see my child grow. I appeal for assistance.”
