Donate to Uzma Bibi for Her Tonsillectomy

Uzma Bibi's Story

Uzma Bibi, 10 years old, is suffering from chronic inflammation and infection of her tonsils, a condition known as chronic tonsillitis. With the passage of time, she has started to experience repeated attack of symptoms including fever, pain in throat and difficulty in swallowing food. Uzma needs to undergo surgical removal of the tonsils, or a tonsillectomy, as a permanent solution but her parents cannot afford the cost of her surgery.

Apart from Uzma, her parents have 8 other family members to support on a monthly earning of just 15,000 PKR. For many months now, they have struggled to get her treated at local hospitals but no one is willing to accommodate them.

“Uzma’s repeated episodes of fever had started to worry us a lot so we tried out best to contact all the resources we came to know of. But despite it being a simple operation, no one helped us.” – Uzma’s mother

As a last resort, Uzma and her parents came to us for help. Uzma’s case has been registered for surgery at Transparent Hands because we believe that she deserves to get healthy. If you are with us, please donate to her today!
