Khian is a 1 year old boy that comes from a very poor family in the Philippines. He was born with a condition called Congenital Uretovesical Junction Obstruction that causes him to live in pain and develop constant kidney infections. His problem involved blockage of his urinary tract which causes fluid to backup into his kidneys and other organs. He has been constantly in and out of hospitals since his birth and if his condition is not corrected, his kidneys and other organs will be permanently damaged and his life will be in danger. Compassion Medicine obtained surgery for Khian to correct the blockage which was very successful. He no longer lives in pain and his family is thrilled to have a healthy boy for the first time since his birth!
