Iqra is the first child to her parents and has a younger sister. She is studying in 6th Std and has currently discontinued from school due to her diagnosis. A once enthusiastic and loving child in the family, has now become very reserved, because of the pain she has been silently suffering.
The journey over the last few months hasn’t been easy on the parents either, as they witness their daughter close of from the world. They have been a pillar of support day-in and day-out for Iqra and are doing everything in their power to make sure she gets better.
