Pamela was due to undergo surgery to remove a large goitre…
Pamela is the mother of five children and the second wife of a man who has since left her because of her health problem. Since then, she has been living on the absolute brink financially. She can only find casual work and therefore lives without a steady income.
For 13 years, Pamela had been suffering from increasing swelling on the right side of her neck. Most recently, she went to a hospital in Nairobi over the Christmas period, but due to a lack of funds, she was not properly examined, let alone treated adequately.
The goitre that was diagnosed was successfully removed by surgery. Pamela is happy, even if her ‘post-operative’ condition, with two neck drainage tubes, might not look quite so rosy.
Many thanks to all our supporters!
