The broad plan to cure more fistula patients
Five new "Hamlin Fistula® Centres" are being built over a period of 5-10 years. Three are already completed at Bahr Dar, Mekelle and Yirgalem. Two others, one at Harer and the other at Metu will be constructed in 2007 - 2008. The countryside in Ethiopia is mountainous with deep ravines. Roads are few. A destitute fistula patient has extreme difficulty reaching a bus. Then she may not be able to travel on the bus because she is "smelly" and leaking urine. To make the trip to Addis Ababa on foot or being carried on a stretcher is a marathon epic. (Source: Ben News)
Fistula - A fistula is a tiny channel or tract that develops in the presence of inflammation and infection. A vesicovaginal fistula is an abnormal connection between the urinary tract and the vagina
