In Memory of Dr Irfan Halim

In memory of Dr Irfan Halim

 

This fund has been set up for the wife and children of Dr Irfan Halim, a wonderful talented and incredible NHS Doctor who worked hard to help others. Irfan was dearly loved and touched so many peoples lives. Sadly, he was taken far too soon from those who love him.

 

Not only was he a loving husband, a devoted father of four children, but an incredibly awesome human being to all that were blessed to have met him. He spent four months away from his family at the height of the pandemic, working in the covid wards. Irfan and the NHS worked frantically to bring him home to his beautiful family, but tragically he passed away after a nine week fight against Covid.

 

We have set up this fund as close friends to ease the burden for his wife of losing Irfan. Irfan was the sole breadwinner for his family. 

May Irfan's memory be a blessing to all who met and loved him. All funds will be provided to his wife Saila. 

 

Written by his wife, Saila -

 

'Irfan went to work on Friday 10th September at Swindon Hospital. He had spent the past two years saving Covid patients and Friday 10th September was just another day saving lives. He was on a ward round wearing his scrubs and collapsed at his workplace having caught this disease from work. Irfan stayed in Swindon in ICU and was then transferred to The Royal Brompton to receive treatment on ECMO. He fought hard to be with his children every day.

 

With a broken heart shattered in pieces beyond imagination I muster what little strength I have to write this message.

 

My beloved Irfan passed away on the Sunday 14th November at 7:51pm peacefully whilst I held him in my arms whispering prayers and love into his ears along with his family.

 

Irfan you gave me fifteen magical years as your wife, four beautiful children, wonderful memories that will last me until my remaining days in this world.

 

You gave 25 dedicated years service to the NHS working as a Consultant General Surgeon.

 

Please remember him in your prayers and duas and mountains of strength for his children for the pain of losing a wonderful, beloved father at such a tender age.

 

Irfan you were not only my best friend but a best friend to all our children and so many others.

 

May you rest in peace.'
