This update comes from Stella, our administration manager in Pader:
Rose Lagulu & Oryema Titus are both landmine survivors with amputation of legs and already had prosthesis but complained of developing wounds and pain at the ankle where the surgery had been done. After consultation and evaluation at Pader HC III, both were referred to Buluba for further treatment. Dr. Ziwa our contact at Buluba reported of them getting their new prosthesis with no complaints so far.
We are continually being called to inquire if this programme is still ongoing making it clear that the service is very much needed, appreciated and still many have not been reached.
The turnout at the outreach held on 17th & 18th June 2010 in Anyeke and Loro in Oyam district was overwhelming with many being referred to Charis-IMC Lira for further treatment and other more serious cases referred to IHK.
