Na is a six-year-old boy from Thailand. He lives with his mother and his two-year-old sister. During his free time, Na enjoys drawing and playing football with friends. During a game of football, Na accidentally collided with a friend and fell on his arm, resulting in an injury. Following an x-ray, Na was diagnosed with a closed left forearm fracture. He has been experiencing significant pain, discomfort, and limited mobility in his arm, causing him to cry frequently. With the help of our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund, Na will undergo surgery to reset his fractured bones and ensure proper healing. The procedure is scheduled for March 5th and will cost $1,500. This procedure will help him regain full use of his arm. His mother said, "I am unable to afford my son's treatment. I am sincerely grateful to BCMF and the generous donors for their assistance."

Janet is a small-scale farmer from Uganda. She completed her education up to the primary level but had to withdraw due to lack of school fees. She got married at the age of sixteen and together with her husband, they have seven children. The family has a small piece of land that Janet and her husband cultivate. Their earnings from this are very modest and unfortunately some of their children have had to drop out of school due to financial constraints. Ten months ago, Janet started experiencing some troubling symptoms, including severe abdominal pains. She was diagnosed with a large irregular intra-peritoneal cystic mass. She has been experiencing great discomfort which has deteriorated her health and has directly impacted their family income. Physicians recommended a laparotomy, which is a surgery that opens up the abdominal cavity to treat her condition. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $279 to fund Janet's treatment. On March 7th, she will undergo surgery at Uganda Martyr's Ibanda Hospital. Once completed, this procedure will greatly improve her quality of life. Janet says, "I was already worried about how we shall raise the hospital funds but to my surprise, God already had a plan for us. I have high hopes of having a successful surgery, and I know everything will move on smoothly. I will be able to resume my usual activities of farming, and my children will be able to go back to school and complete their studies.’’
