A Special Gift for Deth

Cleft lip surgery

Mrs. Sat and her husband live in a rural village west of Phnom Penh, Cambodia. They were very sad and worried about their fifth son who was born with cleft lip. They wanted Deth to look normal like other Cambodian boys.

The family of six is mainly farmers, growing rice and vegetable. Deth’s parents tried to save money for surgery, but it was never enough.

In January 2008, Mrs. Sat heard that CBN offers free cleft lip surgery.

“I am so excited with this good news,” she said.

“…It is such as special gift and is the last hope for my son.”

After a successful surgery, Deth was all smiles. He does not look the same.

His parents are very happy with this change, and they expressed their gratefulness.

“Thank you to CBN, OB and the kind donor who provided this service,” Mrs. Sat said. “Deth looks normal and handsome now. Thank you.”
