Meet our newest baby - TingMeng!

TingMeng's  Anoplasty  

Estimated Cost:   $5500

TingMeng is a girl born in southeastern China with a congenital imperforate anus.  This is caused by abnormal development of the fetus and means that TingMeng’s opening is either missing or blocked.  This imperfection can be created via a surgical procedure called an anoplasty.  A temporary colostomy is often preformed first, while tests are taken and the baby is monitored.  Once the medical team is ready, the affected organs are surgically corrected by the anoplasty operation. 
Half the Sky is seeking to raise $5500 to cover the costs of TingMeng’s care before, during, and after surgery.  Please help us give TingMeng the chance to live the normal, healthy life she deserves!
