Pakistani woman undergoes surgery in Hyderabad
2005-08-15
Yes, this is news in Pak-land.
HYDERABAD — A Pakistani woman is recuperating in a Hyderabad hospital after undergoing bypass surgery following a massive heart attack.

Noor Jahan Begum, 54, from Karachi had come to Hyderabad to attend the marriage of her niece. On July 30 she suffered a massive heart attack. She was rushed to the Apollo Hospital where the doctors found that she was suffering from "high risk acute coronary syndrome" and three of her arteries were blocked. The doctors said her condition was critical as one of the three arteries was hundred per cent blocked and the other artery was ninety nine per cent blocked.

Dr Vijay Dikshit, who led the team of doctors, said that they had to go for bypass surgery as she was not fit for angioplasty. Noorjahan, who is recuperating at the Apollo Hospital said, "I can never forget the way the doctors and the nurses here have treated me and looked after me. This is second life for me." "I though I will not survive", recalls Noor Jahan, thanking Allah and the doctors for saving her life.

#1  Lucky she was in India. Would have probably died if left in the hands of Pakistani medical facilities.
