Muhammad Zubair Khan's Story

Muhammad Zubair Khan, a 28-year-old man from Karachi, has been suffering from discomfort and pain caused by a growing lump on the front of his neck. Simple tasks like swallowing and speaking have become increasingly difficult for him. To seek medical help, Zubair went to a local hospital and consulted a doctor. After performing some lab tests and an ultrasound scan, the doctor diagnosed him with simple multinodular goiter – an enlargement of the thyroid gland that contains multiple nodules. His doctor has advised a total thyroidectomy to remove the goiter and alleviate his symptoms. However, the cost of surgery has left Zubair and his family in a state of despair.

Without timely surgery, Zubair’s condition may lead to serious complications. The enlarged goiter may begin to compress his windpipe, causing breathing difficulties, or disturb the hormonal balance regulated by his thyroid gland. Ignoring the condition can severely impact Zubair’s health, making it even harder for him to continue supporting his family and living a fulfilling life.

Zubair lives in a modest rented house with three family members. As the sole breadwinner, he works as a daily wage laborer and earns only PKR 20,000 a month. This income barely covers their house rent, utility bills, and grocery expenses. Additionally, they are burdened with a loan of PKR 300,000, worsening their financial situation. During this time of need, Zubair reached out to Transparent Hands for assistance. Zubair said in despair:

“This lump has not only caused me physical pain but also taken away my peace of mind. I can’t focus on my work, and I worry constantly about my health and my family’s future. I just want to live without this burden, but I need your support to make that possible. Please help me.”
