Baby Hamid Usman Pathan, a 1-year-old male child, has been diagnosed with Lobar Pneumonia, a serious lung infection affecting one or more lobes of the lungs, complicated by Empyema, which is the accumulation of pus in the pleural cavity. This condition is life-threatening and requires immediate and intensive medical treatment.

Hamid presented with high fever, difficulty breathing, chest pain, and persistent cough. A chest X-ray and further investigations confirmed the diagnosis of Lobar Pneumonia with Empyema. The infection has caused severe inflammation in the lungs, leading to the accumulation of fluid and pus, which further complicates the respiratory distress.

The treatment plan for Hamid at Shwas Hospital includes:

1. Antibiotic Therapy: Strong intravenous antibiotics to combat the bacterial infection causing the pneumonia and empyema.
2. Chest Drainage: Insertion of chest tubes to drain the accumulated pus from the pleural cavity.
3. Respiratory Support: Supplemental oxygen and possibly mechanical ventilation to support breathing.
4. Nutritional Support: Use of feeding tubes to ensure proper nutrition and hydration.
5. Supportive Care: Continuous monitoring of vital signs, blood tests, and imaging studies to assess the response to treatment and adjust the therapy as needed.

The estimated total cost for Hamid’s treatment at Shwas Hospital, including admission to discharge, pre and post-treatment investigations, doctor charges, medication charges, consumables, and feeding tubes, is approximately 175,000 INR.

Hamid's father works as a normal sales person, earning a modest income that is insufficient to cover the high cost of his son’s medical treatment. The family’s financial situation makes it impossible for them to afford the necessary care for Hamid without external assistance.

Given the urgent need for treatment and the family's financial difficulties, we request assistance in securing funding or resources to cover the cost of Hamid’s medical treatment. The support would ensure that Baby Hamid receives the essential care required to recover from this severe condition.

Your assistance during this critical time will have a significant impact on Baby Hamid's health and the family's well-being. We sincerely appeal to your generosity in helping to alleviate their financial burden and provide the care that Hamid urgently needs.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We remain hopeful for a positive response and deeply appreciate any assistance you may be able to provide.
