Freed from Pain in Mexico!
MEXICO - Five-year-old Iker was born with an umbilical hernia. At first it didn't seem to bother him much, but as he got older, the pain became unbearable, especially after he ran or played hard.
He said, “My tummy hurt a lot. I told my mom to take me to the doctor.”
Although they hoped it would get smaller, the hernia continued to grow. His mother Ana said, “I was afraid it might burst, and he would get a major infection.”
As a single mom, Ana knew she would never be able to afford paying for surgery to repair the hernia. She said, “To pay for it, I would have to leave the country to work. And he said, ‘Mom, please don't leave me alone for a long time.’”
Then Ana discovered Operation Blessing's Life-Changing Surgeries program. “I learned that people who don't even know us help others to receive free operations.”
That's when you made it possible for Operation Blessing to pay for Iker to receive free surgery to repair the hernia. After the operation, he can now run and play without pain! Iker said, “Thank you very much for my operation."
And his mother added, “Thanks to you, we received the surgery we prayed about for many years. Thank you.”
