Sabbir H., 6

Sabbir Hossain Raj is a cheerful and hardworking 6-year-old boy who studies in Class One and dreams of becoming both a teacher and a cricketer in the future. He lives with his parents and elderly grandfather in a tiny room inside Geneva Bihari Camp, where his father, Md. Raja Mia, struggles to support the family with a modest income as a bus driver. For several months, Sabbir has been suffering from repeated throat infections, fever, painful swallowing, breathing difficulty during sleep, and severe ear pain, which have gradually affected his sleep, studies, and daily activities. Doctors found that his tonsils and adenoids are enlarged and infected, causing serious discomfort and breathing problems that require proper medical treatment. Without timely treatment, his condition may worsen further, leading to repeated infections, poor sleep, hearing problems, and breathing complications, but the family is unable to afford the medical expenses and learned about Helpster Charity through a medical outreach program.

Sabbir Hossain Raj was admitted to the hospital on 03-05-2026 with recurrent adenotonsillitis, severe sore throat, high fever, earache, and breathing difficulty. After proper evaluation, he underwent a successful operation for the treatment of enlarged and infected tonsils. During his hospital stay, he received antibiotics, pain management, and supportive care, which led to gradual improvement in his condition. His fever subsided, throat pain reduced, and breathing and sleep became more comfortable. After satisfactory recovery, he was discharged on 05-05-2026 with advice for follow-up care, proper hygiene, and medication.

According to the doctors, Sabbir Hossain Raj requires adenotonsillectomy with grommet insertion to remove the enlarged and infected tonsils and adenoids and to treat the fluid buildup inside his ears. With proper surgery and medical care, his throat pain, fever, breathing difficulty, snoring, ear pain, and sleep problems are expected to improve significantly, allowing him to eat, sleep, study, and play normally again. Doctors believe the treatment will also help prevent repeated infections, improve his hearing, and support his healthy physical growth and daily development. However, if the condition is left untreated, the airway blockage and repeated infections may become severe and life-threatening, causing serious breathing problems, sleep-related breathing interruption, severe ear complications, hearing loss, poor nutrition, and long-term health damage.
