KimMuoy is a baby girl who lives with her parents and grandmother. KimMuoy’s parents work in a nearby garment factory, so her grandmother cares for her during the daytime. KimMuoy’s favorite things are being with her family, milk, and playing with her toys.
Since birth, KimMuoy has had an extra thumb on her left hand. KimMuoy’s parents are worried about how this will affect the use of her hand and its appearance. KimMuoy’s parents drove three hours to reach Children’s Surgical Centre, where the surgeons can amputate the extra digit, and give her parents some relief from their worries. CSC is helping KimMuoy’s parents raise $479 to cover the cost of this surgery.
KimMuoy’s mother shared, “I hope my daughter can use her hand well.”

KimMuoy underwent hand surgery.
KimMuoy was a brave girl despite all the strange faces that surrounded her at the hospital. Specialty surgeons removed the extra digit from her hand, and she is healing at home. Her mother will keep her dressings clean and dry, and she will return to have her stitches removed. When her incision is healed, she will learn how to hold objects and she won’t have to hide her hand. This will help her socialize with others when she is old enough to attend school.
Kim Muoy’s mother said: “I hope her hand will heal soon and have no infection. Thank you to the staff who took care of her.”
