Muhammad Jawad, a one year old boy from Lahore is suffering from a lump in his left groin since birth. Upon medical examination, the doctors revealed that he is suffering from left Inguinal Hernia. An Inguinal Hernia occurs when tissue, such as a part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles. The said bulge is painful while coughing and straining. Though Inguinal Hernia isn’t necessarily dangerous, it requires due treatment as it may however, lead to life-threatening complications. Inguinal Hernia repair, that is a common surgical procedure termed, Herniotomy, is advised by the doctors. Herniotomy is carried out under general anaesthesia. A small incision is made in the groin on the side of the hernia after which the hernial contents are pushed back and the defect is fixed. Now that Muhammad Jawad is expected to undergo Herniotomy, financial constraint is hindering his way to a healthy life. His father shares their story in the following words:

“I am a Labourer who earns PKR. 25,000 per month. For the past few months I have seen my son churning in pain. I have visited numerous hospitals but to no avail. Recently the doctor has advised my son to have an operation. I am living in a rented house with my wife and three children. I have to provide for them and in these circumstances I am failing to produce money for the surgical procedure. Visit to Transparent Hands has shown me a ray of hope. I hope to see my child enjoying his childhood like his other siblings.”
