Theng is a 2-month-old baby boy from Cambodia. His parents are rice farmers. Theng is the youngest with two older siblings in his family, a ten-year-old brother and a six-year-old sister.
When he was born, Theng developed a painful mass in his armpit. It gets bigger and bigger every day, causing Theng to have redness and swelling.
Theng and his mother traveled to our medical partner’s care center to receive treatment. On May 8th, surgeons at our medical partner, Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC), will remove the mass. Now, Theng needs help to raise $231 to fund this procedure.
Theng’s mother said, “He often cries from pain, so I am always worrying about him. Once the doctor removes the mass, his pain will be gone.”

Theng underwent a mass removal.
Theng’s surgery was successful. The mass was removed from his armpit, and now his wound will be checked and cleaned every two days until it has fully healed. Our Medical Partner CSC staff have also planned follow-up appointments every 3 months afterward to ensure he is healing and developing well. After recovering, Theng will no longer experience pain in his arm and will have increased range of motion.
Theng’s mother said, “I want to thank the CSC doctors again for helping my son. I was so worried about his pain before, but now I see that he will heal well, and will be strong and happy.”
