Donate Shamim Akhtar for her Abdominal Hysterectomy

Shamim Akhtar's Story

“My husband already has so much burden on him and my illness is an additional trouble. He cannot afford the surgery I need. Please help us with your kind donations.” – Shamim Akhtar

Shamim Akhtar, 46 years of age, has been suffering from lower abdominal pain for the last three and a half years. She visited different hospitals and was diagnosed with Uterine Fibroids. Doctors have advised surgery as permanent cure.

From last one year, her condition has become serious. She is experiencing increased menstrual bleeding, causing her to become anemic. Her immense weakness has made it impossible for her to carry out household chores.

Shamim has 2 daughters and 1 son. She is the second wife of her husband, who already has 4 children from his first wife. Her husband works at a sanitary store with a monthly salary of 15,000 PKR. They live in a small house and life is very tough for them with such meagre income. It is impossible for them to afford the expenses of Shamim’s surgery.

Luckily, they got to know about Transparent Hands and appealed for free surgical procedure. The organization has taken up Shamim’s case.

Shamim is scheduled for her Abdominal Hysterectomy at Abid Hospital – Mian channu, through Transparent Hands. Please contribute for her surgery and put an end to her constant misery.
