Today, meet our second patient in Sierra Leone: a palm oil harvester who fell from a tree, fracturing his spine. His uncle carried him miles to Connaught—his first time in the city. After surgery, he moved his legs. The cost? $300, covered by an MB donor. Follow along for more!

Building bridges means changing lives. A few days after surgery, our third patient—once in constant pain—walked out of Connaught Hospital. This is what collaboration makes possible. Give today: buff.ly/tAwXtXQ #MissionBRAIN #SierraLeone
