Hariet is a 43-year-old woman who lives in rural village in Kenya. She lives with her parents and helps them with their small farm.
For the last two years, Hariet has had heavy abdominal bleeding and severe lower abdominal pain. When her cousin heard that Watsi was able to help pay for patients’ procedures, she went all the way to Hariet’s town and brought Hariet to the hospital by bus, paying for the bus fare herself. There, doctors said that Hariet needed a total abdominal hysterectomy to relieve her pain, to stop the bleeding, and to prevent anemia. But Hariet cannot afford the procedure.
“I wish to see Hariet free from suffering,” her cousin says.
