I have started this GoFundMe for a 6 year old Somali boy from a very poor family who has serious health complications. For the purpose of safeguarding this child, I will not share any images, but the condition he suffers from is extremely rare and was present at birth. He was recently assessed by a paediatric department in a hospital in Turkey who diagnosed him with severe penoscrotal hypospadias with complete transposition of the penis and the scrotum. It was so severe that he was even scanned and tested for female reproductive organs to rule out other conditions. To quote them directly, the doctors said he can only be treated with “more experienced hands abroad” and so I have taken it upon myself to raise funds for the surgery this child is in desperate need of. His mother cannot afford specialists nor surgery for her child’s condition, so his options rely entirely on the donations we are able to raise for him. 100% of funds raised will be spent directly on the child’s medical treatment, as he will require multiple extensive surgeries to improve the quality of his life. I’d like to thank you in advance for your generosity.
