Glorious is a 41-year-old farmer. She’s married with three children who are all in school. Glorious shared that her husband is a soldier and has been away from home for a long time. She hasn’t been able to save money for the surgery she needs from what she makes farming and still taking care of her family.
Six years ago, Glorious began to experience troubling symptoms, including anterior neck swelling, easy fatiguability, shortness of breath, and difficulty in swallowing. She’s been diagnosed with a large thyroid mass and needs surgery to prevent her symptoms from getting worse.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is helping Glorious receive treatment. She is scheduled to undergo a thyroidectomy on February 22nd at our medical partner’s care center. Surgeons will remove all or part of her thyroid gland. This procedure will cost $252, and she and her family need help raising money.
Glorious told us, “I will be the happiest person the day I find myself healed! Through your support for my surgery, I will live a better life.”
