Transform Kaneez Fatima’s Life With Open-Heart Surgery

Kaneez Fatima's Story

Meet Kaneez Fatima, a 1-year-old little girl from Dera Ghazi Khan, who has been battling with breathlessness and chest discomfort since birth. Kaneez is unable to gain weight like other children of her age. Her parents received a medical consultation from a doctor, who diagnosed Kaneez with a Doubly Committed Sub-Arterial Ventricular Septal defect (DCSA-VSD) and pulmonary hypertension. She is suffering from a significantly raised pressure in her lungs. If not treated, it can cause severe complications and even death.

The doctor recommended open-heart surgery for VSD-closure. Kaneez’s parents wish to see their daughter breathe normally without any struggle and discomfort. However, the significant cost of the much-needed surgery is overwhelming for the family. They live in a rented brick house. Kaneez’s father works in a factory and makes PKR 20,000 per month. With this meager monthly income, they cover the rent of the house, which is PKR 6000. Moreover, the family is burdened with a loan of PKR 200,000. Due to their limited resources, they can’t afford the life-saving surgery of their daughter.

In their search for help, the family contacted Transparent Hands.

Kaneez’s father said in despair:

“It breaks my heart to see my little daughter struggling to breathe and not living a joyful life like other children. Every day is a battle for her. She has become weak, as her heart condition limits her growth. I request you to give her a second chance at life. I will be grateful forever.”
