In Feb 2009 the team of School TB Clubs Project visited Government Girls Higher Secondary School Sialkot Cantt, for awareness campaign and establishing TB club. The team delivered an awareness lecture and distributed the flyers about TB, urging school children to join hands in the fight against TB. The lecture was attended by more than 500 students, in which Team were told the students about the symptoms and preventive measures regarding TB and were introduced to the school TB clubs project and its aims, objectives and activities.

Hina Kanwal is a student of 10th Class in Govt.Girls Higher Secondary School Sialkot Cantt. She is Member of School TB Club in School and Received an Awareness Lecture by School TB Clubs Team and She Know about the Symptoms and Preventive measures about Tuberculoses. And always trying to convey messages about Tuberculoses to others very honestly.

Hina Kanwal made a house visit to her Aunty where neighbors came at home she had coughing constantly with sputum, experiencing regular bouts of fever during the nights with rigors and losing weight at an alarming rate. Her family became increasingly worried that his health would not improve. Then I suggest for checkup in nearby TB Centre on the behalf of my best knowledge about sign and symptom of TB which was I gain by IHS Team during their visited in my school. But I told her about Sign and symptom of Tuberculoses then she became worried and said that she has no such disease. My Aunty and I took her to hospital for checkup. After initial investigation the doctor examine TB diseased, And prescribe TB medicine. Now she is taking TB treatment on regular bases. After some month treatment she returned back to his Regular routine, Her Condition began to improve dramatically. The coughing and fever had been controlled.

I feel proudness to see the improvement in health of aunty neighbored. Just because of my little struggle.

May Allah help us to facilitate the people regarding the prevention from Tuberculoses. Amine
