Serigne's Mercy Ships Journey

As little Serigne grew, his parents noticed his legs were beginning to slowly bend outwards. But it wasn't until his twin brother began walking, all while Serigne struggled to keep up, that the family realized something was really wrong.

At the age of 4 years old, Serigne's bowed legs were already pushing him to the sidelines as his friends played and ran. But hope was ahead, as his mother courageously brought him on board the #GlobalMercy for a surgery that would straighten Serigne's legs—and free his future.

Witness the joy that safe surgery can bring through the eyes of Serigne and his family!
