Muhammad's Story

Muhammad's Recovery After Misdiagnosis and Blood Loss

I am Muhammad, and I am 17 years old. It all started when I first got sick. I went to the doctor in my village, but unfortunately, he couldn’t make an accurate diagnosis and gave me some medicine that didn’t help. As my condition didn’t improve, I went to Kabul and visited Aqsa Hospital, where I spent one night.
They then referred me to Ali Jinnah Hospital. I came here, and today is my fifth day in the hospital. After several tests, the doctors at Ali Jinnah Hospital diagnosed me with leukemia, also known as blood cancer. I have already received seven packs of blood. Thank God, I am feeling better now, and the pain has decreased.

As a father, I’ve always believed in giving back to the land that raised me. When my son Attaullah shared his vision of establishing Afghanistan’s first dedicated cancer hospital, I felt a deep duty to support it—not only as a father, but as an Afghan. Too many lives have been lost in silence. It’s time we offered our people a fighting chance, close to home. That’s why I contributed $100,000 to the Afghan Medical Complex. This project is a lifeline, a symbol of hope, and a legacy for future generations. True giving comes from the heart.

My name is Hajji MirSaeed Dekghan

A businessman based in Holland. I was diagnosed with cancer and experienced the physical pain, emotional distress, and psychological trauma that come with it. Despite receiving excellent care, it was an incredibly difficult journey. I couldn’t stop thinking about cancer patients in Afghanistan—how do they cope without access to proper treatment? I made a promise to donate if I recovered. After learning about the Afghan Medical Complex (AMC), I contributed an initial $125,000 and pledged the remaining amount of my $500,000 commitment as the project progresses. This cause is deeply personal to me.
