Help save Nur Aisha

A BURGER seller from Tanjong Tokong in Penang is appealing to the public to help save his nine-month-old daughter’s life.

Mohd Husaif Hussein, 24, is worried sick as his daughter, Nur Aisha Sofia, is in dire need of funds for a major heart surgery.

Bukit Bendera MP Liew Chin Tong said doctors told him the operation must be performed within the next 10 days or the girl would be in “great danger”.

“Her heart is failing and her parents cannot afford the RM45,000 medical bill,” said Liew.

“There are only four surgeons in Malaysia able to perform this operation — all of whom are in private hospitals. Only one surgeon is in Penang.

“Her mother is a post office clerk and the family’s monthly household income is only RM1,500,” Liew told a press conference at the Penang Hospital on Saturday where Nur Aisha was warded.

He said the girl’s heart condition was discovered when she underwent a hernia operation last month for a swelling in the groin area, a condition that can occur in both genders.

“During the operation, she had difficulty breathing and turned blue. Her artery was not pumping blood to the brain.

“She actually suffers from two major heart problems — a hole in the heart and artery failure,” Liew said.

Those who wish to help Nur Aisha can call Liew’s chief of staff, Carol Lim at 012-2326101.

心脏有孔小女孩10天内需动手术您愿意帮她吗？

升旗山区国会议员刘镇东呼吁各界人士向爱莎苏菲亚（Nur AishaSofia）小妹妹施予援助。
才9个月大的爱莎小妹妹，迫切需要在10天内进行心脏手术，否则将会面临生命的危险。
爱莎于今年4月21日进行切除疝（Hernia）（即一种腹壁肌肉变薄的疾病，使得肠子向外侧挤压的病症）手术后，发现心脏有孔。
刘镇东指出：“手术时爱莎呼吸困难，因为心脏无法将血液输送到脑部。全马只有4名能进行此手术的医生，全部都来自私人医院，而槟城就只此一家。”
爱莎的爸爸是名汉堡包小贩，而妈妈则是邮政局的书记，两人一个月的工资只有1500令吉，负担不了高达4万5千令吉的庞大手术费。因此急需向各界人士筹款，保住小爱莎的性命。
救人一命，胜造浮屠。有意帮助爱莎的人士，请联络刘镇东或他的秘书Carol Lim, 012-2326101。

此外，有意捐款予爱莎的热心人士，也可以开支票帮助她。支票抬头必须写着“Pulau Pinang Clinic Sdn Bhd”，然后在支票后面必须写着“For Hospital Bill of Nur Aisha Sofia”，同时，也必须填上爱莎的出生纸号码“BZ90607”，以及身份证号码“080730-07-0370”。
