Donate for Anwari’s Cardiac Procedure

Anwari Begum's Story

Part of loving your spouse is always being afraid of losing them. The fear of abandonment keeps hovering above your head. After all, death is the ultimate abandonment, and you seldom manage to bear it. Anwari Begum too, could not take this abandonment. The news of her husband’s death played havoc with Anwari Begum’s heartstrings. The pain was insufferable. Upon continual pain, her daughter took her to the hospital, where she underwent an angiography. According to the results of angiography, the doctors diagnosed her with Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD). IHD is a term given to the heart condition caused by narrowed heart arteries. When arteries are narrow, less blood and oxygen reach the heart muscle. Hence, the cardiologist has advised Anwari Begum to undergo Angioplasty. It is a nonsurgical procedure used to open clogged or narrow coronary arteries. Therefore, We urge you to please donate for Anwari’s cardiac procedure.

But Anwari Begum’s troubles do not end here. She has circled back and forth to various local hospitals in search of treatment. But all her efforts have gone in vain. Due to her poor socio-economic circumstances, she cannot afford her treatment at a private hospital. After her husband’s death, her eldest son is the sole earner of the family. He works at a food stall and hardly earns PKR 15000 per month. He is in no position to afford the hefty cost of her mother’s surgery. Therefore, please donate for Anwari’s cardiac procedure.

“She was fine before her husband’s death. Apart from hypertension, she never even had a headache. But now, she barely gets out of bed. I tell the children that she is suffering from a broken heart. One that the doctors cannot repair. We have already lost a brother; we cannot lose her too. Please donate for Anwari’s cardiac procedure.” -Anwari Begum’s sister.

We are determined to get Anwari Begum happy and healthy again. But, we need your earnest help to do so. Send your support now. Donate to Anwari’s cardiac procedure and save a mother’s life.
