Emergency paediatric care to ill child in Uganda

Hi

We are grateful for your cheerful giving towards Ashers health restoration, today Asher has been taken to a physician for the first tests,  so far a barium enema examination has been booked at the facility, A barium enema is an X-ray exam that can detect changes or abnormalities in the large intestine. This test has been funded by one of our long time donors on globalgiving. If the test turns positive then little Asher will have to go through an operation, if it turns negative, more tests will be carried out to ascertain the real issue, your money will do us wonders through the process.

Asher has a fierce spirit and inspires so many children and others in his community to be their best. He often stays overtime at the village to draw pictures of events happening in his village,he wants to become an artist, he is 14 now and in grade seven.

The effects of this illness are devastating his family, with pilled bills already in local clinics plus an additional cost in another hospital, the family was considering contacting a local bank to give them a high risk loan, for which they have to mortgage their home. The payments will be over $100 a month for 2 years, meaning that his parents will have to get a second job which is not easy in their community.

Am sure your money will help ease the financial burden and resultant stress that the family is facing. Our goal is to raise the entire $800 for them, to pay for medical expenses.

Help us fundraise with your own fundraiser! Please think about pledging to fundraise from your own friends and family on his behalf. If you can attract 10 donations of $25, it would have a great impact.

If you have other ideas, we are happy to hear them as well.

 Thank you
