Finding Hope Again: Aris’ Journey with One World Surgery
My name is Aris, and I’m a shoemaker from Tegucigalpa, Honduras. I want to share my story with you, and the incredible support I received from One World Surgery during one of the toughest times of my life.
It all started with a typical day, where I worked alongside my family crafting shoes. While walking home, I was in a hit-and-run accident, which left me with a tibia fracture. Due to my injury, I also developed a virus called osteomyelitis. I found myself unable to work, facing mounting medical bills, and struggling to find a way forward.
I sought help from local hospitals, but despite undergoing surgeries, my condition only worsened. The financial burden became overwhelming, and that’s when I discovered OWS.
From the moment I walked through their doors, I felt a sense of warmth and compassion unlike anything I had experienced before. The doctors and staff listened to my story with empathy, and for the first time in a long time, I felt hopeful about my future.
Through a series of surgeries and treatment plans tailored to my needs, I began to see progress. Each step forward filled me with renewed optimism. Along the way, I faced a personal loss with the passing of my parents. Even in my darkest moments, the OWS team stood by my side, offering comfort and encouragement when I needed it most.
Thanks to OWS, I not only regained my physical health but also found a renewed sense of purpose and resilience. I’m back to work alongside my brothers, crafting shoes, and rebuilding my life. Thank you for restoring my hope. I will be forever grateful.
