Hi, I'm Lom
I'm a girl, 13 years old and live in Cambodia.
Kimlang was introduced by a school director. The family is vulnerable. Her father is a motor taxi. He earns low and inconsistent income. Her mother is a housewife. She stays home to look after the house and the children. Sometimes, she went to the fields to pick up the vegetables to sell for some money. It is really difficult for the parents to support the family because the income is not enough. Sometimes, the brother or sister who worked in other provinces, had to send some money for them to buy the rice.
Kimlang was in good physical condition during admission. She used to have a cold and fever. She was recovered by using medicine and traditional method. She was hospitalized two times.
Kimlang is the seventh child of the family. The first three siblings got married and moved to live with their family. The other brothers went to work in other provinces. So, there are only four members living together in a small wooden house. The income of the family is not enough to support the family. The family needed support to send their children to school.
