Grace’s Medical Appeal


Background
-
My name is Dr. Moses Fraser, a medical doctor from Ghana, now living and practicing in the United States. During my recent trip to Ghana for my mother’s funeral, I met a woman whose story I couldn’t ignore — Grace, a 61-year-old woman living with a large recurrent Ameloblastoma, a rare, aggressive tumor of the jaw.
-
Grace has endured four major surgeries in Ghanaian hospitals over the years, but the tumor keeps returning. The swelling has caused her great pain, difficulty eating, and emotional distress. Yet despite everything, she continues to face life with quiet strength and faith.
- When I met her, I felt deeply moved to help — even though I didn’t yet know how. After reaching out to organizations worldwide, I finally connected with Dr. Bryce Noblitt, a U.S.-based missionary ENT surgeon serving with KenyaHear at Kijabe Hospital, Kenya.
Treatment Opportunity
-
Dr. Noblitt and his team have graciously offered to perform Grace’s complex jaw reconstruction surgery free of charge.
- However, we still need to cover the cost of her hospital stay, recovery, and travel from Ghana to Kenya.
Funding Needed – Total: $11,800 USD
-
Hospital stay & post-op care (3 months): $7,000
-
Flights (Grace & caregiver): $1,000
-
Lodging & meals ($20/day × 90 days): $3,600
-
CT scan: $150
-
Pre-op labs: $50
