Mureed Fatima Successfully Underwent Hysterectomy
Mureed Fatima's Story
Mureed Fatima, a 44-year-old resident of Karachi, had been experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding due to uterine fibroids for the past three years. Her condition worsened to the point that she could no longer work around the house or care for her children properly. She went to a nearby hospital and consulted a doctor, who after a thorough examination and evaluation diagnosed her with uterine fibroids. To relieve her symptoms, the doctor recommended an abdominal hysterectomy. However, the surgical cost was beyond her family’s financial capacity.
Mureed lives in a small brick house with her husband and five children. Her husband, the sole breadwinner in the family, is a daily wage laborer and brings in just PKR 28,000 per month. This monthly income was insufficient to cover even their household expenses. The financial strain of the medical bills weighed heavily on them, leaving them in a desperate situation. After struggling for a while, Mureed found Transparent Hands and contacted us for help. Moved by her plea, we registered her case.
On 25th July 2024, Mureed was admitted to Murshid Hospital in Karachi. The surgery took place on the same day. Dr. Farkhanda Saeed skillfully performed her abdominal hysterectomy and relieved her chronic pain and discomfort. Mureed was hospitalized for three days and received post-operative care and monitoring. On 27th July 2024, she recovered and was discharged in satisfactory condition.
Mureed was happy and she said:
“I thought I would never heal and I would be trapped in pain forever. But your support came at the perfect time. I feel like a new person. I can’t express how thankful I am to you for helping me get my life back.”
After the successful operation, Mureed’s quality of life has dramatically improved. Mureed is now pain-free, back to her daily activities, and able to care for her family again. Mureed and her family extend their deepest thanks to you for supporting her. Your generosity has given her a new lease on life.
