Tukwasibwe is a 33-year-old pregnant mother of two children. She teaches and she also works as a farmer, primarily growing beans, potatoes, and maize for home consumption. Her husband works as a hawker, and her family lives in a rental house.
When Tukwasibwe visited our medical partner’s care center, her doctor recommended that she deliver her baby via C-Section. She has two previous deliveries this way due to birthing needs and a C-Section will reduce the risk of uterine rupture during this delivery. Fortunately, our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare (AMH), is helping Tukwasibwe to receive medical care. On July 6th, she will deliver her baby via C-Section, and now, AMH is requesting $252 to fund her procedure.
Tukwasibwe shared, “I really ask for your support for the success of my surgery because I consider this child to be precious to me as I had two miscarriages previously which had made me lose hope.”
