Not sure what you point is, however, I think I can safely say that most Americans feel bad for what is going on there in Afghanistan. We felt worse though on September 11, 2001 when terrorists harbored in a safe haven at the expense of the innocent lives you describe, engineered and ordered, the killing of thousands of innocent people here in the USA. Imagine what we have had to see with not only the injured, but dead as well. We have taken care of the same injuries you describe. Maybe only less because of the amount of innocent people who were killed.

Every person knows one-day war involve an orthopedic surgeon

For more than one year for the surgery or the reconstruction of the

 War effectie.

But one day war involve an Orthotist / Prosthetist for the whole life.

This job of O&P to provide possible facilities.

In the case of Afghanistan, the people are already suffered from the Russian _Afghan War & also Taliban- Northern alliance war. But the current

 Phase of war is different from their old two experiences.

The reasons of this are

Heavy bombardment on the civilian.

Using more sophisticated war weapons.

Still the target is innocent people.



All of us well aware that any type of air bombardment is not able to

 Categorized .You must ready for any type of damages

Keeping in mind all the condition than you can able to see & understand.

 Bombardment turns causalities, but due to the absence of logistic

 Support many more war victims are still in Afghanistan.

In our hospital we received 6 patients many others are still treating in

 Other hospitals of Quetta City.

One-man age 35 years due to the bombs shell suffered Right Trans tibal

Amputation was necessary. He has no information about his family

 Members.

One female age 30 years came in really bad condition. After the

Bombardment her home destroyed she lost her four children

 (Still she thinks her children are alive (yes they are free from

All type of terrorism, because they are in heaven). She is here

 With her 1-year-old baby both were seriously injured.

She lost her one eye with one Right breast.

Another male patient from Heart province after the

Bombardment the roof was fell down on his spine the

Dislocation was occur on T12 -L2 level

Now he lost the sensation in his lower limb not able to control his urea.

He also has no information about his other family member. There are

  No charms remaining in his life.

One young man is also under treatment; a piece of bomb removes his Left calcanoeous now orthopedic surgeon will perform skin grating to

 Turn the remain foot in Equnius or syme level of amputation will perform



Al-Khidmat Al-Hajeri hospital is offering his services from last 20 years.

The Center of Orthotics, Prosthetics & Physiotherapy is also

Offering rehabilitation services from last 06 years.

We offer Polypropylene type of orthosis because Polio is still

Present .we will treat T.B, Perthes's disease, Volkmann's Ischemic

Contracture. Mine effete amputation.

Whenever the transport facilities will available the war effectie will

Contact in large number. Because inside Afghanistan Organization

Are not able to start their operation due to the situation & clearance

From Taliban.

I pray that God will help us to provide all possible

Orthotics & Prosthetics facilities.
