Karachi – Leukemia is not just a medical crisis; it’s an emotional and psychological battle for both the child and the family. With over 1200 children affected each year in Pakistan, Sannan’s story is not unique, but the chance of survival can be.
Imagine becoming a parent after years of awaited bliss, only to watch your child’s life hang in the balance. This is the reality for Fauzia, whose only child, Sannan, was diagnosed with leukemia, a life-threatening cancer of the blood. Thanks to your kindness, the Indus Development Foundation (IDF) could step in to make a difference. You helped us support free treatment to marginalized communities at the Indus Hospital and Health Network (IHHN) and make miracles happen for babies like Sannan, turning their mothers’ nightmares into dreams of a bright, healthy future.
The medical care didn’t stop at physical treatment—Sanan also received psychological support at IHHN to cope with the trauma of the illness, and Fauzia received emotional care to navigate the overwhelming grief and fear that accompanied the cancer diagnosis. Through the holistic care provided by IHHN, Sannan now has a fighting chance at recovery.
