Donate for Zain’s VSD Closure

Muhammad Zain's Story

Zain, an innocent child, is facing numerous challenges due to his multiple heart defects. These conditions have greatly affected his physical growth, leaving him with limited energy and making it difficult for him to engage with his parents and play with other children. Unfortunately, without the necessary heart surgery, Zain’s future remains uncertain. The cost of the surgery is beyond his family’s financial means, placing an additional burden on their already difficult situation. In this critical time, we appeal to your generosity and compassion to consider making a donation towards Zain’s cardiac surgery. Your support can help save his ailing heart and provide him with a chance for a healthier and happier future.

Zain, a one-year-old resident from Vehari, has been experiencing symptoms of cyanosis, dyspnea, and repeated episodes of chest pain. Concerned about his deteriorating health, his parents took him to the local hospital for medical attention. After undergoing diagnostic tests, a cardiologist confirmed the presence of multiple heart defects in Zain, including ventricular septal defect (VSD), mild pulmonary stenosis (PS), and pulmonary hypertension (PHT). To address these conditions, the doctor recommended that Zain undergo open-heart surgery for VSD closure. This surgery holds the potential to greatly improve his health and provide him with a chance at a better quality of life.

Zain lives with eleven family members in a small house. The sole provider for the family is his father, who earns a monthly income of PKR 60,000. Their financial situation was already challenging, and the cost of the life-saving heart surgery for Zain is an overwhelming burden for them to bear. Zain’s father, in a voice filled with despair, expresses his heartfelt plea:

“My son has been facing the daily struggles of living with multiple heart defects since birth. Please help us secure a better future for him. Your response to our plea means everything to us.”

Fortunately, one of their relatives informed them about Transparent Hands, and we have registered Zain’s case. It is our collective responsibility to extend a helping hand to those who are in distress. Your contribution can provide Zain with the opportunity he deserves for a long, healthy, and joyful life. Don’t forget to donate to other deserving patients.

Zain's Heart is Healthy Now

22 Jan 2024

Zain, a one-year-old boy from Vehari, faced a daunting battle against multiple heart defects. His parents grew increasingly concerned as they witnessed symptoms such as cyanosis, dyspnea, and recurrent episodes of chest pain. Determined to find answers and help for their son, they sought medical attention at a local hospital. After undergoing a series of diagnostic tests, the cardiologist delivered a diagnosis that confirmed their worst fears: Zain had ventricular septal defect (VSD), mild pulmonary stenosis (PS), and pulmonary hypertension (PHT). To address these life-threatening conditions, the doctor strongly recommended that Zain undergo open-heart surgery for VSD closure.

In the face of this daunting medical reality, Zain’s family found themselves burdened not only with worry but also with financial constraints. Zain’s father, the sole provider for the family, earned a monthly income of PKR 60,000. The cost of the life-saving heart surgery seemed insurmountable, further exacerbating their already challenging financial situation. However, a glimmer of hope emerged when a relative informed them about Transparent Hands.

Transparent Hands swiftly took action, understanding the urgency of Zain’s situation and the immense burden his family was shouldering. They worked tirelessly to find the necessary resources for his surgery.

Zain was admitted to Ittefaq Hospital, Lahore, where the skilled hands of Dr. Asim Khan, on October 30, 2023, successfully performed the much-needed surgery. Through a median sternotomy, VSD closure, and PDA ligation, Dr. Khan skillfully addressed the complex challenges within Zain’s heart. The surgery was a resounding success.

Zain’s hospital stay lasted five days, during which he received exceptional care and support from the dedicated staff at Ittefaq Hospital. Their unwavering dedication to Zain’s well-being played a crucial role in his comfort and recovery.

The profound impact of the Pakistan Children’s Heart Foundation and our compassionate donors cannot be overstated. Their selfless contributions not only alleviated the financial burden on Zain’s family but also provided them with renewed hope and strength. Zain’s life has been forever transformed, and he now has the opportunity to embrace a future filled with health and happiness.
