Donate for Azan’s VSD Closure

Muhammad Azan's Story

The only thing standing between Azan and a safe, stable life is financial constraints. Azan’s heart needs all your help to keep beating. Therefore, we request you to please donate for Azan’s VSD closure.

Ever since birth, Muhammad Azan has been suffering from recurrent chest infections with high cough and fever. At first, his mother tried to treat it with herbal remedies. However, as the cough persisted, she took him to a local hospital. Upon check-up, Azan was immediately referred to a cardiologist. Later, after a thorough examination, the cardiologist diagnosed him with Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD). VSD is a hole in the wall separating the two lower chambers of the heart.

Upon consultation, the cardiologist advised a VSD closure surgery for him. Unfortunately, Azan’s parents cannot afford the hefty cost of the surgery. Azan’s father is a sanitary worker and hardly manages to earn PKR 18,000 per month. In this income, he barely manages to take care of the household expenses and utility bills. In these circumstances, he is in no position to arrange for Azan’s VSD Closure surgery. Azan’s grief-stricken mother told us that:

“My son is only eight months old. At the mere age of eight months, he has suffered the pain of a lifetime. I do not know how we will win this war against fate. Right now, I do not see any way, any ray of hope to get me through. Please help us.”

After a lot of mental and physical anguish, Muhammad Azan’s parents have requested Transparent Hands for help. We have promised them that we would arrange his surgery as soon as possible. Therefore, we urge you to please donate for Azan’s VSD closure. Only your support can save Azan from a terrible fate so we request you to please donate generously.
