Meet Dr. Anum Najam.

At the age of 21, Dr. Anum took a bullet through her spinal chord that left most of her body and life plans paralysed.
This is a story of a resilient woman who rose back up and met all challenges life threw her way.
Dr. Anum did not just complete her education but also pursued specialisation in psychiatry at the Kings College of London to become a consultant psychiatrist in CMH, Muzaffaabad.
