Mwape.com has just been informed, that the Zambian Government has issued a check in the amount of US$19,000 for Cardson Kabwe medical proceedure in Russia. Cardson is not aware of this development yet, as he is in a Russian Military Hospital in St. Petersburgh undergoing surgery. The Military hospital agreed to perform in-kind operation at a reduced fee of US$11,000 after seeing that the young man did not have much time on his side.

His fellow students in Russia raised about US$6,600 and mwape.com raised US$3,000. The check, we understand is with Hon. Clement W. Sinyinda (MP) Deputy Minister of Education.

Hon. Clement Sinyinda will be joining us on blogtalkradio April 4th, 2009. Thank everyone for your financial support and prayers, and we wish Kabwe a speed recovery.

Hi, my name is Cardson Kabwe, age 25 years. I am currently in my third year at St. Petersburg State Pediatric Academy, Saint Petersburg, Russia. My life has not been easy, when I was in grade nine I lost my remaining parent who happened to be my mother. I remained only with my sister, being the older one I had to look after my sister and at the some time find a way out of Kaunda Square stage one compound in Lusaka.

The way I found out was learning, in 2005 I was awarded a scholarship to study medicine in Russia

However, late last year I was found to have a heart disease that has currently made my school life hard. The disease is know as Rheumatic heart with mitral valve stenosis and aortic insufficiency stage two. I need to under go an operation that cost US$19,000. The Zambian government bought me an air ticket and forgetting that I need to under go an operation within 6 months and already three months has past.

Sincerely, I am asking you for your help in any way you can. Thanking you in advance and may the Almighty Lord bless you and your family
