Boy treated for abscess at Mercy

Mohamed is a 15 year old boy who lives near Mercy Hospital. He is in 8th grade and is an excellent student. Unfortunately, he suffered from a large abscess on his forehead that made it difficult for him to speak, think, and perform daily activities. This obviously also began to affect his schoolwork. 

​His family brought him to Mercy because according to Mohamed's father, “They have good medical supplies and they really take good care of the patients.” Mohamed’s abscess was drained by Dr. Kanneh and he is in the process of recovery.
