Donate to Asif Ali for His Orthopedic Surgery

Asif Ali's Story

“I was overwhelmed by how quickly my first surgery was funded by donors. It gave me hope that there are people in this world willing to help me. I hope they continue doing so, so that I can have my normal, active life back once again.”– Asif Ali

Around 11 months ago, 42-year-old Asif Ali was crossing the road when he was hit by a negligent motorcyclist. The accident resulted in a fractured bone in his leg. Bystanders summoned an ambulance and he was immediately transported to the emergency room of the nearest hospital. The doctors there tried to fix his bone but it was heavily damaged and did not heal properly. Consequently, he progressed to nonunion of his right tibia and fibula. To heal his bone, he required fixation surgery- an ilizarov application- which was conducted through Transparent Hands in February 2020. Now, in the progress of healing, Asif requires another orthopedic surgery- a corticotomy and bone transport.

Before his accident, Asif worked as a security guard and earned 18,000 PKR a month. 5000 PKR were spent on renting a small house in Gujranwala, where he lives with his wife and 2 school-going children. The rest covered all the monthly expenses, including school fees. Post-accident, the family has no earning hand and cannot meet the expenses of even their basic necessities.

Asif’s first surgery was done with your help. He hopes that you can support him this time as well so he can get back on his feet soon.

Please donate to support him.
