UPDATE: Due to the genorosity of a few who acted so incredibly swiftly, Grace's entire surgery and care has been taken care of in less than 24 hours. Thank-you to those who answered the call. You are such a gift. Bless. If anyone still wishes to donate - you may do so and additional funds will go into a health fund for all the women and children.
Aloyo Grace needs our support! I just received news this morning that one of our incredible ladies in Attiak needs surgery asap. She has a giant goitre in her throat that is swelling rapidly. It is classified as acute and toxic. She is rapidly losing weight and doctors are not sure at this time if the cause is merely an iodine deficiency or Pituitary Disease or Thyroid Cancer. Grace is 18 years old and a child mother with 3 beautiful children. Her kids really need their mommy to stay alive and be able to provide for the household, education and future no less. Child mothers are girls who have been raped, forced into LRA sex slavery or have been sold to men for a few shillings. Child mothers are very young single mothers. If you have evena few dollars - we're talking 2, maybe 5, maybe 10 - your wonderful contribution will help Grace so very much. Please make note in your paypal donation comment that it is for Grace. What is deemed a very costly surgery and care there will cost merely a few hundred dollars here. This includes visits and prescriptions pre and post surgery. Any surplus of funds will go towards a health fund for all the Nyara women and their children. This fund will be a free-access source for the women and children whenever illness arises in the family. I thank you in advance for your compassion and your gift! - Holly Lamaro. |
