Meet Thib, a 21-year-old who has two brothers and two sisters. All of his siblings are married, except for his youngest sister. Thib’s parents are farmers. In his free time, Thib enjoys playing football, going fishing, and helping his family do housework.
Last November, Thib was in a motor vehicle accident, where he sustained multiple injuries. He arrived at our Medical Partner Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC) with a heel laceration and a tibia fracture. The tibia fracture is now infected, and the wound on his heel remains open. Thib requires surgery to clean the wound and to repair the fracture.
Our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre, is seeking $991 to fund the necessary procedure, which is scheduled for June 14th at Kien Khleang National Rehabilitation Centre. After he has recovered, Thib should be able to resume all of his daily activities, free from pain.
Thib says: “I hope after surgery my leg is healed and I have no more infection or pain. I want to walk well enough to return to work.”
