Nangobi Mariam, a 10-year-old girl from Kamuli, is a beneficiary of our foundation. She has been diagnosed with Spinal Bifida and still requires your assistance. We would like to express our gratitude to everyone who has supported Mariam’s left leg amputation. Thanks to the Almighty God, the amputation was successful, and she has now recovered.

However, recently her right leg has developed severe wounds. We have sought medical treatment for her, but the doctor has confirmed that amputation is necessary for this leg as well, as the wounds cannot be healed. Before proceeding with the amputation, the doctor suggested that we provide her with crutches and a prosthetic leg for her left side. This way, even after the amputation, she would have the means to support herself.
Unfortunately, Mariam’s old crutches have broken due to her weight, and she is unable to walk. As parents, we want her to maintain hope and comfort during this second amputation, which is why we are reaching out for support. The doctor informed us that a prosthetic leg costs approximately 1.8 million Ugandan Shillings ($500) or more. He assured us that after the second amputation, Mariam will be able to lead a better life.
We humbly call upon all the kind-hearted individuals associated with St. Jude to join us in standing with our daughter Mariam. It is difficult to comprehend the challenges she is currently facing.
