CHARSADDA: Although cancer has deprived him of his nose and cheekbone and even eye-sight, seven-year-old Pir Hassan is determined to work hard and move on in life. His resolve can be seen in the annual result of his grade 1 exams in which he has bagged 100% marks.
While talking to Geo News, Hassan, a resident of Charsadda, said he wanted to become a doctor so that he can serve humanity. According to his father, Hassan is an avid reader. It is a hobby that blurs the hurdles that stand in his way due to his illness. "He would even study in the hospital, or in the car," he told Geo News.
His father said Hassan's treatment was underway. The seven-year-old has a major operation after five weeks. "If he gets well, I will leave no stone unturned in helping him get an education."
He was diagnosed with blood cancer last year in May.
