This is a beautiful story of a mother-daughter, where the daughter gifted her mother a fresh lease of life by being a Living Donor. 42-year old Nurjahan Mohammed Sabir was suffering a lot of leg pain and other symptoms for quite some time. Unable to find the right treatment in their own country, they approached Dr. Ravi Mohanka is Global Hospital located in Parel, Mumbai, one of the top hospitals of India. He has been associated with many Indian and international hospitals and is proficient in numerous forms of Liver treatment, including thorough experience in Living donor and Deceased Donor (Cadaveric) Liver Transplantation.

Under the supervision of Dr. Mohanka, Ms. Nurjahan underwent some advanced tests that revealed that she is suffering from Liver Cirrhosis. The disease was taking a toll on her health and led to unwanted weight loss, fatigue, easy bruising along with discoloration in her skin and eyes. She has been undergoing medication for almost two years. Dr. Mohanka told that the only solution to her illness was a Liver Transplant at the earliest. On learning about this, her daughter, Nazneen Sabir Muhammad decided to help her mother.

She was determined to be a donor for her mother and the tests showed that she was the perfect match. So, on a decided date, a Living Donor Liver Transplantation was performed on Ms. Nurjahan, by Dr. Mohanka and his highly trained staff. After the surgery, the patient was shifted to the ICU and kept under strict observation. She was properly put on anti-rejection and anti-infection medication so there was no such issue. Also, the patient’s daughter says that Dr. Mohanka was very careful and would regularly visit the patient to ensure that all was well with the patient. Not only did she recover smoothly but she got rid of all the difficult symptoms.

Thus, by being the living donor, Ms. Nazneenproved to be a true blessing for her mother. Today,both, the mother and the daughter are doing fine. Ms. Nurjahan is in great health and is walking around without any difficulty or any leg pain. They are extremely grateful to Dr. Ravi Mohanka for his dedicated care and think that Global Hospital can be best treatment venue for any patient. Additionally, Ms. Nazneen says that not only people should think about Organ Donation within their family, but also for people around them.
