Meet Zin Mar, a 32-year-old newlywed from Burma. Zin Mar lives with her husband, who is a shop keeper, and his family.
Zin Mar has a uterine myoma, a large and uncomfortable mass on her uterus. This condition has greatly worried Zin Mar, who wants to have children more than anything, as it can cause infertility if left untreated.
$865 will remove the mass and send Zin Mar home, happy and ready to have a baby whenever she and her husband decide is right.
