Soeun is a loving grandmother from Kampong Cham province. She is 69 years old and recently stopped working outside on the family rice farm due to her deteriorating vision. She has been a widow since her husband passed away from liver disease 30 years ago. She has two sons, two daughters, and seven grandchildren. Nowadays, Soeun lives with her oldest daughter who is a clothing factory worker in the local province. In her free time, she likes listening to Buddhist prayers on the radio and going to the local pagoda. Three years ago, Soeun developed a cataract in her left eye, causing her photophobia, tearing, and blurry vision. She spends the majority of her time inside, and is often lonely. When Soeun learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, she traveled for three hours seeking treatment. On November 1st, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery, and an intraocular lens implant in her left eye. After recovery, she will be able to see clearly. Now, she needs help to fund this $253 procedure. Soeun said: "I hope after surgery I can have good eyesight again. I want to go outside, see my family better, and help my daughter with housework."

Su is an 11-year-old fourth grader from Burma. Her mother and father both work for Karen ethnic community based organizations. Su was born with club feet and a dislocated right hip. She underwent an operation at Chiang Mai Hospital in November 2022, with the help of Watsi donors. Her doctor wants her to undergo a CT scan to check how her hip is healing, following the surgery and ensure her condition is corrected. The CT scan will also allow Su's doctors to determine if she requires any additional treatment. Our medical partner, Burma Children Medical Fund, is requesting $469 to cover the cost of Su's CT scan, which is scheduled for May 25th, at Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital. Su’s father said: "I want my daughter to have the best: the best education, the best future, and the best family. I will support her and respect all of her ambitions."

Pisey is a 26-year-old driver from Cambodia. He lives in Phnom Penh, where he worked full-time as a personal driver. However, due to a car accident, Pisey cannot continue his occupation and finds himself confined to his home, where he resides, with his parents and grandmother, who work as rice farmers. He likes watching videos on social media and misses going out with his friends, working, and being active. On June 4th, another car crashed into him from the side, and Pisey fractured his right leg. He was taken to a nearby emergency hospital, where he had surgery to repair the fracture with external fixation. The fracture is healing well, but there is an infected wound at the site of the metalwork, and he can no longer afford treatment at the hospital where he was initially treated. He cannot walk or work and is in constant pain. When Pisey learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, he traveled there seeking treatment. On June 28th, surgeons at CSC will perform a skin graft procedure to help heal the wound and get him walking and able to work again. Now, Pisey needs help to fund this $487 procedure. Pisey shared that he hopes to be able to relieve the pain and get back to work as soon as possible.
