You Healed Wilayat’s Heart with CABG

Syed Wilayat Shah's Story

Syed Wilayat Shah, a 74-year-old man from Mardan, KPK, has spent the last few months living with constant worry and pain. Recently, he began experiencing chest pain that would come and go. At first, Wilayat thought it was something minor, but over time, the pain grew stronger. Hoping to find relief, Wilayat visited a local doctor who gave him some medicines. However, despite taking these, his condition only got worse. The pain in his chest became more frequent and intense, and he started feeling short of breath even while resting. Concerned, his family decided to take him to a doctor for a detailed check-up. After a thorough evaluation and some tests, the doctor diagnosed Wilayat with Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) with Triple Vessel Coronary Artery Disease (TVCAD).

His doctor told him that the only way to save his life was through Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG). However, his family was unable to pay for his surgery.

Wilayat lives in a modest house with his wife and three children. His two sons work at private companies, and together they make just PKR 60,000 per month. This amount barely covers their household expenses, utility bills, groceries, and other needs. Saving enough for an expensive heart surgery was simply impossible for them. During this time of despair, Wilayat’s family reached out to Transparent Hands for help. After verifying his financial and medical information, we promptly registered his case.

On May 12, 2025, Wilayat was admitted to Northwest General Hospital & Research Centre in Peshawar. Dr. Bahauddin Khan performed his CABG on May 13, 2025. The surgery was a success, and he was discharged from the hospital in stable condition on May 17, 2025.

Wilayat’s family shared their feelings with us as follows:

“Watching our father suffer was heartbreaking. Your support made it possible for him to get the much-needed surgery. We can never thank you enough.”

Today, Wilayat is recovering well and can look forward to spending many more moments with his loved ones. It was made possible because of your generosity. His family extends their deepest gratitude to you for saving Wilayat’s life.
