His Cancer Story
Naeem Akhtar is a hard working father of two from Rawalpindi, Pakistan. A few months ago he started noticing some abdominal pain and a lack of appetite. After a few visits to the doctor, Naeem and his family were struck with devastating news. He had been diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Cancer. The cancer has since rapidly spread to his colon, spleen, liver, and other organs.
Not only with this diagnosis, but also due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Naeem was forced to stop working. His wife and two young children are now left unsupported as the bread winner of the family has become dehabilitated.
The healthcare system in Pakistan lacks proper insurance and this family is unable to afford any treatment for Naeem. Unfortunately there are no payment plans and full payments must be made prior in order to book any surgery or treatments.
On 05/19/2020 Naeem underwent his 1st surgery to help with his colon issues and insert a colostomy bag.
This surgery alone cost over $3000 and the first round of donations was raised by family and friends.
What's Next
Naeem is due for his 2nd surgery after he recovers from the 1st. The second surgery will be to remove any masses in his liver and spleen. This surgery will cost an estimated amount of $4000.
The doctors plan for about 10 Chemotherapy sessions after surgery, at which each will cost about $1000.
Any donation helps this family during these tough times.
Please keep Naeem and his family in your thoughts and prayers. InshAllah he has a speedy recovery.
