Hamza I., 3

Hamza Islam, a 3-year-old child, lives with his parents, grandparents, and uncle in a small overcrowded shelter in Geneva Camp, where his father earns only 8,500 BDT per month as a daily laborer, making it difficult to meet basic needs and impossible to afford medical care. He is a gentle and playful child, but his repeated illness has made him weak and unable to live a normal childhood. Recently, he became seriously ill with prolonged fever, cough, and breathing difficulty, and was diagnosed with severe pneumonia with bronchial asthma. His family is deeply worried but cannot bear the cost of treatment due to financial hardship. They learned about Helpster Charity through a medical outreach camp and sought help, as without timely care, his condition may worsen, leading to severe breathing problems and life-threatening complications.

Hamza Islam, aged 3 years, was admitted to Al-Manar Hospital on 13 April 2026 at 1:38 PM with severe pneumonia with bronchial asthma. He received hospital-based supportive and conservative treatment, along with necessary investigations and medicines. After 7 days of treatment, his condition improved and he was discharged on 20 April 2026. The doctor advised continued medicines and monthly follow-up for further care. His family is grateful to Helpster Charity for supporting Hamza’s treatment.

With timely hospitalization, antibiotics, nebulization, and supportive care, Hamza Islam is expected to improve as the lung infection is controlled and his breathing stabilizes. Treatment will reduce fever, open his airways, and help him regain strength. With proper monitoring, his asthma can also be managed. However, if left untreated, pneumonia may worsen, leading to severe breathing difficulty or respiratory failure. Repeated asthma attacks may increase complications. These conditions can become life-threatening, so timely medical care is essential.
