You Relieved Aqsa’s Abdominal Pain

Aqsa Bibi's Story

Aqsa Basit, a 30-year-old woman from Hyderabad, had been suffering from severe upper abdominal pain and nausea for the past seven months. She frequently experienced vomiting, persistent heartburn, and a burning sensation while urinating. Despite trying various remedies, her discomfort persisted, affecting her overall well-being. Finally, Aqsa visited a specialist for a thorough checkup. After conducting the necessary tests, the doctor diagnosed her with cholelithiasis. To relieve her symptoms and prevent further complications, the doctor recommended an open cholecystectomy—surgery to remove the gallbladder. However, the cost of the procedure was far beyond what her family could afford.

Aqsa lived in a small rented house with her husband and four young children—two attending school while the other two remained at home. Her husband worked as a bus conductor, earning only PKR 20,000 per month. This meager income barely covered their basic expenses, including food, rent, and school fees. With no financial resources to pay for the surgery, Aqsa was left in distress. Desperate for help, she reached out to Transparent Hands.

On January 07, 2025, Aqsa was admitted to Isra University Hospital in Hyderabad, where Dr. Waseem successfully performed the open cholecystectomy. The procedure went smoothly, removing the source of her pain and discomfort. After receiving post-operative care, she was discharged in stable condition on January 10, 2025.

Now on the path to recovery, Aqsa expressed her heartfelt gratitude as follows:

“For months, I lived with constant pain, unsure of how I would receive the treatment. After the surgery, I feel like a new person. The relief and happiness you brought into my life are something I will cherish forever. I am grateful to you for supporting me during my time of need.”

After undergoing successful surgery, Aqsa can now care for her children and focus on her responsibilities without pain. This change in her life was made possible through your generous support. Her family extends their deep gratitude to you for making a valuable impact on her life.
