Surgeons at Mwaiwathu Private Hospital last week successfully operated on the 11 year-old girl who had been grappling with fistula for over seven years in Lilongwe, but recommended that she requires three more ‘separate’ operations.
Mr. Price, one of the chain stores in the country, had initially offered to pay an estimated K200,000 towards meeting the costs of the operation on the child. But after the operation, the bill rose to K300,000.
