Relieve Shakeel’s Abdominal Pain with Cholecystectomy

Muhammad Shakeel's Story
Muhammad Shakeel, a 44-year-old man from Karachi, has been suffering from persistent pain in his right upper abdominal region for the past three years. What began as occasional discomfort soon turned into a daily struggle, accompanied by severe nausea and vomiting. The pain worsens after meals, making it difficult for him to focus on work and perform his daily tasks. After a visit to the doctor, he was diagnosed with Cholelithiasis. It refers to the presence of gallstones in the gallbladder. The doctor has advised him to undergo a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, the cost of the surgery is out of his financial reach.
If left untreated, Shakeel’s condition will continue to worsen over time. He may develop severe complications like gallbladder infection, bile duct obstruction, or even organ damage.
Shakeel has a physical disability in one leg and he walks with the help of a stick. He drives a rented rickshaw and earns just PKR 25,000 per month. He lives in a rented house, paying PKR 5000 for rent and PKR 3000 for utility bills. After covering basic expenses, he is left with barely enough to manage household needs. Each day, Shakeel struggles to make ends meet. His financial limitations don’t allow him to pay for this necessary surgery. With nowhere else to turn, Shakeel has reached out to Transparent Hands, hoping for a miracle.
Shakeel said in despair:
“I have spent years bearing this pain while also struggling with my disability. I cannot let my family go hungry, but I cannot continue like this either. Please help me get the surgery so I can live without this constant suffering.”
Shakeel’s future depends on this surgery. With your support, he can finally get the relief he has been waiting for. Let’s stand by him and give him a chance to lead a pain-free life.
