“The youngest of the family, Naresh loves to play pranks on his older brothers; he is the most active of the bunch and never stays still,” shares our medical partner, Possible.
Naresh is a six-year-old boy from Nepal. “Naresh lives with his mother and two older brothers, and his dad is the sole breadwinner of the family and has been working in India for the last two years,” Possible tells us.
Naresh currently has a fracture of his upper arm. Possible explains, “Naresh was playing on the second floor when suddenly his feet slipped and he fell to the first floor. He started having pain in his left arm and he has been having difficulty moving his hand, changing his clothes, taking a bath, and even sleeping.”
Naresh needs surgery to regain mobility in his arm, and increase his quality of life.
With $579, Naresh will receive surgery to repair his arm. In this procedure, the bone fragments are repositioned into their normal alignment, and then held together with special screws and metal plates. Following surgery, Naresh’s arm will be put in a cast and he will stay in the hospital for one to three days to ensure he is healing properly. When Naresh recovers he will have full movement in his arm.
Possible reports, “Naresh is looking forward to getting back to school and playing with his friends.”
“I am really thankful to our supporters for helping with Naresh’s treatment,” his mother shares. “A huge burden has been lifted from my shoulders.”
