Abdul Waheed Needs Treatment for Sealed Intestinal Perforation

Abdul Waheed's Story

Abdul Waheed, a 60-year-old man from Lahore, has been experiencing abdominal pain and swelling for the past two months. His daily activities have been affected by his illness, making it hard for him to sleep at night. Despite receiving symptomatic treatment, he couldn’t find relief. Finally, he consulted a specialist at a nearby hospital. After a series of tests and examinations, the doctor diagnosed Abdul Waheed with Sealed Intestinal Perforation – a condition characterized by a hole in the bowel wall which later on sealed by itself leaving unresolved contents in abdominal cavity. His doctor has advised exploratory laparotomy with lavage and drainage to investigate and potentially treat underlying issues. However, the cost of the treatment is out of his financial capacity.

If Abdul Waheed doesn’t receive timely medical intervention, his condition will become worse. He may face a high risk of peritonitis, sepsis, and potentially death due to the spread of infection and damage to vital organs. 

Abdul Waheed lives in a modest home with his wife and four children. He is a salesman in a garments shop and earns just PKR 40,000 per month. Despite his illness, Abdul Waheed works hard to provide for his family. However, his underlying condition often drains him physically, and he struggles to even sit properly. His monthly income is insufficient to cover their utility bills amounting to PKR 15,000, food, and other necessities. Due to their financial constraints, affording to pay for his surgery is impossible for them. During their search for help, they found Transparent Hands and asked for assistance.

Abdul Waheed said in despair:

“This pain is unbearable, and I’m tired of this illness. Every day, I pray for my recovery but my financial limitations are a great obstacle. I don’t have any option other than to seek help from you. I request you to help me in receiving the treatment so I can have a healthy and pain-free life.”
