“The surgery took place on Monday and my son, Maeir Bashir, has been taken off ventilator support. He will be in the ICU for two-three days before being moved to the general ward. Doctors said his progress has been good,” revealed Fahim, a Shoe retailer in Karachi.

The two-year-old Pakistani boy went a high-risk heart surgery at Jaypee Hospital, Noida last week. The surgery took place after the young patient was diagnosed with congenital heart disease at a local Karachi hospital around 8 months ago.

The father of the child, Jawwad Fahim (32), revealed that “Doctors at Aga Khan hospital had recommended a doctor at Jaypee Hospital. After 8-10 months, through various channels which included writing to India’s External Affairs Ministry and Minister Sushma Swaraj, visas were granted to my son, wife and me…We were lucky; there are several other children who are in dire need of medical treatment but cannot avail it due to visa issues.”

 “Doctors told me about a child who was operated here in 2016. The child’s condition has been deteriorating rapidly in the past few months. If another surgery is not performed, the situation might become very grave. I hope he gets the same attention we did,” he added further.8
