Former Pakistan People’s Party lawmaker and party information secretary Fauzia Wahab on Monday is in precarious condition and has been placed on a ventilator in the city’s hospital. Earlier when her condition deteriorated on Sunday, she was admitted into the Intensive Care Unit of a private hospital, Orthopedic and Medical Institute (OMI), in Karachi. Wahab had earlier undergone a gall bladder surgery on Friday but her condition became serious on late Saturday night. Talking to media, the PPP leaders said that the ailing lawmaker suffered internal bleeding after her first surgery. On this, she summarily underwent a second surgery. However, her condition moved far from being stable. Various high-ups in the government including President Asif Ali Zardari, Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani and National Assembly Speaker Dr Fehmida Mirza telephoned Wahab’s son, Ali Wahab, and inquired after her health. Various political leaders including Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Chief Mian Nawaz Sharif phoned her son to inquire after her. Several other political leaders including PPP’s Saeed Ghani, Latif Mughal, Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah and MQM leader, MQM’s Sindh Health Minister Dr Sagheer and Minister for Ports and Shipping Babar Ghauri visited the hospital and inquired after her condition.

  1. I hope tax payers are not paying her medical bills. She has plundered enough to pay for her own expenses. There are more deserving people who need help. People die of hunger everyday in Pakistan. If one person dies of medical malpractice its not that big of a deal. Maybe we will start paying attention to who we are sending to medical schools and on what basis. Merit or connection? These sifarshi doctors will one day be treating your family or even you.

  2. This is a wake up call. Sifarshi doctors are graduating from medical schools and they are no more qualified to be doctors than gillani is qualified to be PM or zardari to be president. My concern is who is paying her medical bills?

  3. The remarks made above normal lack decency. It reminds me of the great saying 'Dumshan marey tey khushi na karyea sajnan whee mar jaanan". I appreciate Nawaz Shareef's gesture of asking the well being of the ailing lawmaker. I wish she recovers soon!

  4. We pray she gets well soon. She was educated, and forceful in argument, one of the betters in the women community of Pakistan

  5. May she get well soon. She was educated, forceful in argument and one of the better ones among the women community in this country.

  6. She was the one who once on TV show had said that "these kind of things happen every day, these are samll things, they don't matter', when the anchor had referred to sucide commited by 04 members of a family due to poverty.
    So if she dies due to mistake of a doctor, so what, everyday day these kind of small incidents happen in hospitals. No love lost. Infact good omen for PAKISTAN.
