GUATEMALA – At the tender age of 11, Yael experienced a medical anomaly that would send any parent into a spiral of worry: persistent severe nosebleeds. These weren’t ordinary nosebleeds; they were the kind that made your ears burn and caused significant loss of blood.
The Dire Diagnosis: Facing a Nasal Mass
Doctors made a chilling discovery: a large, non-cancerous mass was nestled inside Yael’s nasal cavity. This nasal mass was not just a silent occupant; it was life-threatening. Doctors warned that without nasal tumor surgery, Yael could die. The prospect of surgery brought its own set of worries, compounded by the family’s financial limitations. The cost of such a specialized operation was beyond their means, and the helplessness felt by Yael’s parents was an agony no one should endure.

In their darkest hour, a glimmer of hope emerged when Operation Blessing learned about Yael’s situation. Friends like you stepped in, covering the costs for the much-needed surgery.
