Stanley is a happily married father of three teenagers, one girl and two boys. The family lives in a semi-permanent structure on a piece of land that belongs to their grandfather. Stanley, his wife, and his daughter make a living for the family as casual laborers. Recently, Stanley was on his way to work when he was suddenly in a motorbike accident. From the accident, Stanley sustained a displaced fracture of the distal tibia and fibula bones and a proximal tibia fracture. He was sent home with a splint and analgesics. Stanley is in pain and unable to use his leg to walk or work. On March 7th, surgeons at our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, will perform a fracture repair procedure on Stanley. After he is fully recovered, Stanley will be able to walk comfortably and resume working to support his children. African Mission Healthcare Foundation is requesting $1,145 to help fund this procedure. Stanley said, "Words cannot express how I really feel at the moment. When I think of the state of my family I get so traumatized especially now that I cannot offer any help to them. I believe that God will fight for me because this is beyond me. Kindly help me.”

Horn is a 72-year-old retired rice farmer from Kompong Cham province. He is married and has three sons, five daughters, and twelve grandchildren. Horn's favorite hobbies are visiting the local pagoda to pray and gardening around his house. About three years ago, Horn developed a cataract in his right eye, causing him sensitivity to light, tearing, and blurry vision. He has difficulty seeing things clearly, including colors and faces, and is worried about falling when walking, thus he is unable to travel on his own. When Horn learned about our medical partner, Children's Surgical Centre, he traveled for five and a half hours seeking treatment. On February 6th, doctors will perform a small incision cataract surgery and implant an intraocular lens in his right eye. After recovery, he will be able to see clearly. Horn needs help raising $253 to fund his procedure. He said, "I hope after surgery my eye can see better and I can recognize my family members."

Anthonie is a student from Haiti. He lives with his aunt and uncle and their family in a small town in northern Haiti. He enjoys going to school and church. Anthonie has a cardiac condition called Tetralogy of Fallot. This condition involves several related defects including a hole between two chambers of the heart, and a muscular blockage of one of the valves. These prevent blood from flowing normally through his body, leaving him weak and short of breath. The care Anthonie needs is not available in Haiti so he needs to travel for surgery. He will fly to the Cayman Islands and on January 9th will undergo cardiac surgery. During surgery, surgeons will sew a patch over the hole to close it, and remove the muscular blockage in his heart. Another organization, Have a Heart Cayman, is also contributing $16,000 to pay for his treatment. Anthonie's family also needs help to fund the costs of surgery prep, travel, and follow-up care. The $1,500 bill covers labs, medicines, and checkup and followup appointments. It also pays for obtaining his passport, and for the social worker from our medical partner, Haiti Cardiac Alliance, who will accompany Anthonie's family overseas. Anthonie's aunt says, "Anthonie has been very sick for a long time, we are all praying that this is the miracle that will make him better!"
