Help Erum Find Relief From Cholelithiasis

Erum Mumtaz's Story

Erum Mumtaz, a 31-year-old resident of Karachi, has been enduring excruciating right abdominal pain for the past year. Her daily life has been consumed by discomfort, making even the simplest tasks challenging. Despite seeking treatment from local doctors and taking medications, Erum only experienced temporary relief. Realizing the severity of her condition, she decided to visit a local hospital’s outpatient department (OPD) for further evaluation.

At the hospital, Erum underwent a thorough examination, and the doctor diagnosed her with gallbladder stones. The doctor recommended a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a surgical procedure to remove her gallbladder, as the most effective solution to alleviate her pain.

Erum, a dedicated housewife, is dependent on her husband, who works as a daily wage earner, to support their family. They reside in a very small rented house, comprising just one room, with their two children. Their monthly income barely reaches PKR 30,000, out of which PKR 3,000 goes towards house rent, PKR 2,000 for utility bills, and PKR 1,500 for school fees. With these essential expenses, there is no room for savings, making it impossible for Erum to afford the cost of the required surgery.

Erum finds herself trapped in a difficult situation, desperately seeking a way to overcome her ailment. The burden of financial constraints prevents her from accessing the necessary medical care that could provide her with relief from the persistent pain.

In her quest for assistance, Erum turned to Transparent Hands. Recognizing the urgency of her situation, we registered Erum’s case, aiming to gather support for her laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Without this vital surgery, Erum’s symptoms will only continue to worsen, hindering her ability to lead a fulfilling life.

Erum’s plea echoes with a sense of hopelessness as she says, “I am trapped in a cycle of pain, unable to afford the surgery that could change my life. Please, help me find relief. Your generosity can bring an end to my suffering.”
