Help Ishfaq Ahmed Obtain Prosthetic Limb

Ishfaq Ahmed's Story

Ishfaq Ahmed, a 57-year-old resident of Lahore, had been struggling with a big tragedy in his life. He is a diabetic patient and he developed a diabetic wound four months ago and his right leg had to be amputated below knee level.

Ishfaq lives with his wife and three children in a small rented house in Lahore. Unfortunately, Ishfaq is presently unemployed since his medical condition prevents him from working and earning a livelihood. This has put a massive strain on the family’s finances, as they struggle to afford basic expenditures such as their monthly rent of 19,500 PKR, electricity bills of 8,000 PKR, and children’s school fees of 5,000 PKR.

Ishfaq’s financial situation is still awful even with the support of his relatives, who have been helping the family fulfill their basic necessities. The family is totally reliant on the kindness of their loved ones because they are unable to pay for Ishfaq’s necessary right below-knee prosthesis.

Ishfaq wants to be able to support his family and take an active role in their life once he regains his mobility and freedom. The family is unable to overcome the financial load of his medical treatment on their own, though, and it has become a serious challenge.

Ishfaq Ahmed said it in a depressed tone:

“I long for the day when I can walk by my children, and provide for my family once again.” Your donations would be like a lifeline, allowing me to start over and regaining my dignity.”
