FAiTh Society Pakistan organised a series of special events for patients with thalassaemia

FAiTh – Fight Against Thalassemia Patients & Parents Society and its President, Ms Ayesha Mehmood, prepared several special surprises for 17 of their members, patients suffering from thalassaemia, in January and February 2020, at the FAiTh offices in Karachi, Pakistan, where their birthday celebrations were held.

Ms Mehmood stated that FAitH, not only seeks to regularly put together educational meetings and events to inform patients about various aspects related to the disease, but also provides for the actualization of activities that target the patients’ psychological well- being, such as this one.

Additionally, Ms Mehmood shared with TIF that, thanks to FAiTh systematic efforts over the past few months, patients in Sindh whose supply in iron chelation medicines was off for 13 months, are now receiving free iron chelators and can continue their treatment without problems.
