Social situation:

Maximillah is a 28-year-old single mother with a young child. Due to severe lower abdominal pain, she is no longer able to have sexual intercourse with her husband, whereupon he left her.
Without a husband, the family’s income is extremely low, particularly as Maximillah ekes out a living doing poorly paid odd jobs such as cleaning or laundry.
They often only eat once a day…

Medical problem:

Due to the severe lower abdominal pain, Maximillah can no longer work regularly and is therefore unable to afford further diagnostic tests and treatment. After the birth of her child, she suffered from a vesico-vaginal fistula, which was operated on in 2000. This may be the cause of her current symptoms.

Maximillah has now sought help from Dotty, our dedicated nurse in Nairobi, and asked for assistance.
Please help us to relieve her pain and enable her to support herself and her child through regular work.
