Donate for Amna’s Colostomy Closure

Amna Zaheer 's Story

Amna is in agony due to the pain and distress. She needs surgery to alleviate the pain and return to her regular life. If you make a contribution, we can ensure that she receives the best medical care she needs to alleviate her suffering. We ask you to donate for Amna’s colostomy closure to give her a pain-free life.

Amna, a 7-year-old resident of Sheikhupura, was born without a back passage. At the time of Amna’s birth, a colostomy was performed due to a congenital anomaly. Then, Amna underwent a PSARP (posterior sagittal anorectoplasty) to correct the anomaly. Her rectum has been dilated regularly using a dilator, which has led to significant progress in her recovery. As a result, she is now ready for the closure of her colostomy. It involves reconnecting the colon to the rectum and closing the opening in the abdomen. This will enable Amna to pass stool normally, without needing a colostomy bag. The surgery is a crucial milestone for her toward full recovery, and it is expected to greatly improve her quality of life.

She lives with her parents and one sibling. Her father is the only breadwinner in the family and earns just PKR 20,000 monthly, He is not in a stable financial position to pay for her daughter’s surgical expenses. He said in despair:

 “I can’t see my daughter in pain and discomfort every day. Help alleviate her pain by making a donation.”

One of their relatives told them about Transparent Hands, and they contacted us to register the case and make her surgery possible. Her health depends on this surgery. Your donation can make all the difference in her life. We appeal to your kind hearts to donate for Amna’s colostomy closure. Your generosity will change her life forever. Please come forward and donate to be a part of her healing journey.
