A school head at Chibaya Primary School in Masvingo District is appealing for US$14 500 to undergo a heart surgery in India at Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram City.
Misheck Chenjerai (52), told TellZim News that his heart had two blocked valves that were not functioning properly hence the need for heart surgery which is to be done in India.
“In August this year I was diagnosed with a heart problem when I was told that two valves on my heart are not functioning properly and there is need for an operation to be done urgently in India. I am appealing to well-wishers to assist me in raising the required amount so that I get treatment early,” said Chenjerai.
A father of three, Chenjerai said he is going through a difficult time as he can no longer perform heavy duties and that is affecting his family financially.
“I have three children and my wife is also a civil servant. We cannot raise the money needed for the surgery from both our salaries. The condition has made it difficult for me to carry out any side hustles to raise the money as I am no longer able to perform any heavy duties,” he said.
He further said the condition was already affecting his work as a school head as it demands him to do more on the ground which is difficult for someone in his condition.
“Some of the duties required to be performed by a school head need someone who is more active but it is now challenging for me to be more effective due to my health condition,” said Chenjerai.
His wife, Mercy Chenjerai who is also a teacher at the same school said they were going through a difficult time with doctors saying the surgery should be done urgently.
“We are going through a difficult time as a family as my husband’s condition keeps getting worse by the day and we are unable to raise the money. Our plea is for well-wishers to assist us in raising the required amount of money so that he can be able to undergo the required surgery on time,” said Mercy.
