Sry is 72 years old and a retired rice farmer from Cambodia. She lives with her husband, a retired teacher, and her grandson, who is in Grade 10. She has seven children, all of whom are married and live in nearby provinces. Although she is no longer working as a rice farmer, she enjoys planting vegetables around her home. In 2017, Sry was struck by a cow and suffered a hip fracture. She underwent a left hip hemiarthroplasty. However, she has continued to experience pain in her left hip. Over the past year, the pain has become much worse, particularly when she moves her leg or at night. Walking has become difficult, and she now relies on a walking frame for support. This has affected her independence and made it harder for her to carry out daily activities and care for her vegetable garden. After learning about Children's Surgical Centre (CSC) through a relative, Sry decided to seek further treatment. On November 3rd, she is scheduled to undergo a left revision total hip replacement to address the acetabular erosion and improve her mobility. Her family can contribute $100, but needs help raising $1,400 to fund her procedure and care. Sry said, “I have been living with hip pain for many years, and it has become much worse over the past year. Walking and moving around are now very difficult for me. I hope this surgery will relieve my pain so I can walk more comfortably, take care of my daily activities, and return to farming.”

Sothea is a 44-year-old parking money collector from Cambodia. He lives with his parents and two younger brothers in Kompong Chhnang Province. His parents are farmers. He works alongside his second brother and enjoys watching the news on his phone in his free time. On April 26, 2026, Sothea was injured in a motorbike accident that caused open fractures of his right tibia and fibula. He was initially treated with an external fixator and later had a plate and screws placed. He has ongoing pain and stiffness in his right leg, and an infection in his surgical wounds. The infection and discomfort make walking difficult, and he currently relies on crutches. When Sothea learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre (CSC), he traveled three hours to seek treatment. On September 7th, surgeons at CSC will perform a debridement procedure to remove damaged and infected tissue and collect samples to help guide his treatment for the infection. He can contribute $50, but needs help raising $367 more to fund his procedure and care. Sothea said, “I hope this treatment will help heal the infection and reduce the pain and stiffness in my leg. I want to walk more comfortably without relying on crutches and return to my work at the market.”
