During our previous jigger clinic, we met a family that had really been affected with jiggers. The whole family consisting of father (Ambundo), mother (Peris) and son (Eshituma) had been adversely affected. Their son could not attend school as it was so difficult to walk to school due to affected feet and pain. At school, he couldn’t concentrate due to pain. His parents could not work due to the jigger menace.
We got them treated and fumigated their house on several occasions. And provided them with footwear and education on how to prevent future infestation.
We are glad to report that the family is now jigger free. When we paid them a visit recently, it was pleasing to see the relief. Their feet are completely healed. Their son, 10 is able to attend school and the parents are able to work. They are so grateful for the help they got.
“My family used to suffer from jiggers infestations frequently. We couldn't afford treatment and footwear to protect our feet. But now, thanks to Give Amore, we have a jigger-free home and my kid can walk to school without pain. We could not sleep at night and it was too painful to walk. We are now free from jiggers now. Thank you” says Mr. Ambundo
