Coumba's Mercy Ships Journey

“I was 4 when I got burned. I was saving my little brother from a fire. I pulled him out, but while I was saving him, my clothes caught fire.”
It was a story that Coumba told countless times to explain her appearance before she finally received successful treatment for her burns at 31 years of age. On board the #AfricaMercy, #volunteer surgeons performed an extensive reconstructive plastic surgery to restore the use of her left arm. Coumba returned home to rural #Senegal with renewed independence, better equipped to care for her three children.
