Veronica was burnt by a domestic fire when she was just two years old. It caused a severe damage to her right arm, right side of her face and severe skin damage on her head. The top part of hear scalp is covered with only a layer of soft skin tissue.
The accident also caused Veronica a muscle ulcer just right above her eyeball which has developed inside of her eye.
She needs a plastic surgery on her head, where a piece of her skin from her thigh can be removed and replace the once damaged skin on the head. Until then, she is a high danger of damage since the soft skin issue can break at any point.
Also the muscle from her eye needs to be removed as it is hurting her and makes her uncomfortable when using her eye.
The plastic surgery is estimated for around 3Million shillings (£731), which would be performed in Kampala.
The eye surgery would be around 200.000 Shillings (£48)
Whisper has promised to try and help this girl.
I am asking for a kind request of helping us to raise the funds for her operation.
Veronica is very jolly and happy girl but she is going be facing a difficult future overcoming many life-challenges that will not be easy to handle.
Please consider donating to Whisper for her treatment.
