A marriage shattered by the burden of a prolapse
Adanech’s hope was rekindled when she learned about a free treatment program.
Awaiting a life-changing prolapse surgery at Nigist Ellieni Mohammed MemorialComprehensive Specialized Hospital, 40-year-old Adanech Tadiso shares her battle with prolapse. She describes the daily struggle, expressing, “When I walk, I feel like my uterus is about to fall. I can’t walk or sit comfortably. It has an ulcer and an offensive discharge.”
Adanech’s marital tragedy unfolded two years ago when her husband divorced her, considering the prolapse as a curse. Left her to raise three children as a single mother working as a farmer. The prolapse has not only affected her marriage but also her social life. The offensive discharge has prevented her from attending social gatherings, deepening her isolation.
Unable to afford treatment, Adanech’s hope was rekindled when she learned about a free treatment program. After enduring Stage IV ulcerated prolapse, she finally underwent surgery. Now, her spirit is lifted with joy, and to our surprise, she has already begun contemplating a reconciliation with her husband. We share in her happiness and hope for the reunion of her family.
