Success Story

Read how a free surgery funded by Transparent Hands donors transformed a patient's life.

Kanwal Ali Akbar, a 27-year-old woman from Kasur, was expecting her fourth child. While the arrival of a new baby brought happiness to her family, it also came with serious concerns. Having already undergone two previous C-sections, Kanwal's pregnancy was considered high risk. During her antenatal checkups, the doctor carefully evaluated her condition and advised another C-section to ensure the safe delivery of both mother and baby. Given her medical history, attempting a normal delivery could have led to severe complications for both. The cost of the C-section was beyond the family's financial means.

Kanwal is a homemaker who lives with her husband and their three children in a small rented house in Kasur. Her husband works at a private company and earns approximately PKR 32,000 per month. His modest income is used to cover rent, food, utility bills, and the daily needs of their growing family. With no other option, Kanwal turned to Transparent Hands for help. After reviewing her medical records and financial circumstances, her case was registered.

On June 27, 2026, Kanwal was admitted to the Ahmed Medical Complex in Kasur. Her C-section was successfully performed by Dr. Fatima Inayat. The procedure went smoothly, and Kanwal safely delivered a healthy baby boy. Following post-operative care and observation, both mother and baby were discharged in stable condition on June 29, 2026.

Kanwal expressed her gratitude as follows: "As my due date came closer, I worried every day because I knew I needed another C-section, but we had no way to afford it. Your generosity made the safe birth of my son possible. Seeing my baby healthy in my arms is the greatest blessing I could have received. Thank you for standing by my family during this precious moment."

Today, Kanwal and her newborn son are doing well and enjoying this special new chapter together. Her family is filled with gratitude for the kindness that ensured a safe delivery for both mother and child.

Your generosity brought comfort, hope, and happiness to a family welcoming their newest member.
