Nayyer Sultana's Story

Nayyer Sultana, a 44-year-old resident of Lahore, finds herself grappling with a debilitating hernia, robbing her peace and comfort. The pain and discomfort, manifested by visible swelling around her umbilicus, serve as constant reminders of the silent struggle within her body.

For Nayyer, this hernia is more than just a physical ailment; it is a barrier standing between her and a life of normalcy. The risk of complications such as strangulation and bowel obstruction looms large, casting a shadow of uncertainty over her future. Yet, amidst the darkness, there lies a glimmer of hope—the promise of hernioplasty to alleviate her suffering and restore her quality of life.

Nayyer first noticed the telltale signs of her condition four years ago. She visited a general surgeon, who, after a thorough evaluation and diagnostic tests, confirmed her fears—she had a paraumbilical hernia. This condition occurs when abdominal contents protrude through a weakened area near the belly button, causing discomfort and distress.

Mesh hernioplasty, a surgical technique utilizing synthetic mesh to reinforce and repair the paraumbilical hernia, was recommended by the doctor as the best course of action.

Nayyer’s situation is heartbreaking. She lives in a small rented house in Lahore with her four children and husband. Her husband brings home only PKR 25,000 a month. Most of it, PKR 12,000, pays for their rented house, and PKR 5,000 covers the bills. After that, they barely have enough money left to buy groceries. Saving for her much-needed surgery seems impossible.

Nayyer reveals, with a voice full of despair, “A hernia is causing me intense pain, affecting my daily life and duties to my family. My condition has worsened, and now I urgently need financial help for my surgery.”

Transparent Hands has taken up Nayyer’s case, pledging to provide her with the surgical and medical care she desperately needs. But our efforts alone cannot suffice. Your generosity can make a profound difference in Nayyer’s life, offering her the chance to have a healthier future free from the shackles of pain and discomfort.

Nayyer Sultana's Story

Nayyer Sultana, a 44-year-old resident of Lahore, has been burdened by a debilitating hernia that has disrupted her peace and comfort. The constant pain and discomfort, along with the visible swelling around her umbilicus, serve as constant reminders of the silent struggle she endures within her body.

Nayyer first became aware of her condition four years ago when she noticed the telltale signs. Seeking medical help, she visited a general surgeon who confirmed her fears—a paraumbilical hernia. This condition occurs when abdominal contents protrude through a weakened area near the belly button, causing significant discomfort and distress.

Mesh hernioplasty, a surgical technique that utilizes synthetic mesh to reinforce and repair the paraumbilical hernia, was recommended as the most suitable course of action. However, Nayyer's financial situation was unstable, and she couldn't afford the cost of the surgery and related medical expenses.

In this critical time, Nayyer turned to Transparent Hands for support. Transparent Hands, with the help of generous donors, stepped in to provide the necessary financial assistance. As a result, Nayyer was admitted to Lahore Care Hospital, where Dr. Ahmad Fawad performed the surgery successfully on March 6, 2024.

Following the surgery, Nayyer's condition improved significantly, and after two days, she was discharged from the hospital in a satisfactory condition. The burden of her medical expenses had been alleviated, thanks to the support and generosity of the donors and the assistance provided by Transparent Hands.

The impact on Nayyer's life cannot be overstated. The successful surgery not only relieved her from the constant pain and discomfort she had endured for years but also brought a renewed sense of hope and relief to her and her family. The financial burden that had weighed heavily on Nayyer's shoulders had been lifted, allowing her to focus on her recovery and reclaim her life. The story of Nayyer Sultana is a powerful testament to the transformative impact of empathy and community support.
