Thrown from a Motorcycle, Saved at Masindi

Irene was riding a boda boda with her father when a cargo truck struck them. She was thrown from the bike and rushed to Masindi-Kitara Hospital.

She had a concussion and severe lacerations. The team stabilized her with pain meds, cleaned her wounds, and monitored her for a week. Weekly follow-ups ensured no long-term head trauma developed.

Her family is forever grateful. “She could have died,” her father said. “But now she’s playing again.”
