Donate for Iqbal’s Chemotherapy
Muhammad Iqbal's Story
Before you dive into Muhammad Iqbal’s tale of woes, please know that you can help him. All you have to do is click the green button above and donate for Iqbal’s chemotherapy.
For the last two years, Muhammad Iqbal has been suffering from B-Cell Lymphoma. Simply described, B-cell lymphomas are types of lymphoma affecting B cells. Lymphomas are “blood cancers” in the lymph nodes. The news of Iqbal’s cancer played havoc with everyone’s emotions. It changed the entire course of Muhammad Iqbal’s life.
In order to treat this condition, Muhammad Iqbal has to undergo chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is a drug treatment that uses chemical agents to kill fast-growing cells in your body. Chemotherapy is most often used to treat cancer since cancer cells grow and multiply much more quickly than most cells in the body.
“When we got to know about father’s life-threatening illness, the entire family was engulfed in sadness and distress for days. It has been a year and we are still struggling to come to terms with it. Our minds are permanently occupied with fear and worry. We have nowhere to go.”
Unfortunately, Muhammad Iqbal does not have the means to arrange for his chemotherapy. At first, he was having his chemotherapy sessions at a private hospital but now, he has exhausted his resources after mere three sessions. He works as an auto driver and hardly earns PKR 20,000 per month. With a family of seven to raise, it has become impossible for him to make ends meet.
Therefore, as a last resort, Muhammad Iqbal has requested Transparent Hands for help. We are rooting for Iqbal to win his battle against cancer. But, it won’t be possible without your help. Please donate for Iqbal’s chemotherapy as much as you can.
Please Note: In certain situations, we proceed with the patient's surgery/medical procedure despite incomplete funding displayed on the website. Following the surgery/medical procedure, we persist in collecting funds and maintain the campaign on the website until funding is secured in full. Hospitals have granted us a grace period for bill payment.

He came to us for help and to get his treatment completed.
