Win Win is a 42-year-old woman who lives in Burma with her husband and son’s family. Two years ago, Win Win noticed pain in her lower abdomen. She has sought treatment on multiple occasions, but her symptoms have relapsed each time. After she received an ultrasound, doctors found a uterine myoma, or noncancerous mass, in her uterus.
Win Win will undergo a surgery on January 26 to remove her uterus and the mass.
“I really want to be healthy again,” expresses Win Win, “so I can go back to work and save money to pay back my debt.”
Her family operates a knife-repairing business but does not have the funds to cover the surgery. Our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund, has requested $1,500. This will cover Win Win’s surgery and hospital stay.
