Shoaib Ibrahim reveals wife’s health issue
In the vlog titled Need Your Prayers, Shoaib shared how Dipika had been experiencing severe abdominal pain for the past few days. Initially mistaking it for acidity, doctors prescribed antibiotics. However, when her condition didn’t improve, further medical investigations were carried out. Blood tests indicated a possible infection, and a subsequent CT scan revealed the tumour in the left lobe of her liver.
Shoaib called it a deeply shocking moment for the entire family. Dipika was immediately hospitalised for further testing to determine whether the tumour is malignant. The couple is now awaiting one final critical test result that will provide more clarity on her condition. While early signs suggest the tumour may not be cancerous, the couple is staying cautiously optimistic.
Holding back tears, Shoaib made an emotional appeal to his fans and even to trolls, requesting everyone to keep Dipika in their prayers as they face this tough phase together.
