Cancer Strikes Terror in the Family, Please Save Little Kaveri
“For over a year, we couldn’t conceive a child. Then my prayers were answered when the gods blessed me with one, whom I named Kaveri. When I found out that she had cancer, I couldn't accept the reality. I wasn’t able to eat while thinking about her. My husband is madly in love with the child; she is our only child. I only want her to be safe and nothing more.”
Kaveri, a child of one and a half years, has been living a nightmarish existence
ever since she was nine months old. It started as a fever, which turned into
weekly vomiting and a low appetite. After taking her to many hospitals, it was
finally confirmed that she had Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell
Neoplasm. A rare cancer which affects fewer than 1,000 people every year.
Initially, chemotherapy couldn’t be done as her protein levels were down and
her nerves were weak. After a few sessions of chemotherapy, Kaveri couldn’t
sit or stand and lost her hair. Now she needs chemotherapy and a bone
marrow transplant from Mazumdar Shaw Medical Centre, Bengaluru, Karnataka
(26 km from Bangalore City Railway Station), which would cost Rs.22,00,000(Rupees Twenty-Two Lakh Only).
Meanwhile, the conditions at Kaveri’s house are demoralising. Kaveri’s father,
Shankar, used to work as a florist but now for the past couple of months, he
has been unemployed as he has to take care of his daughter. Meanwhile,
Kaveri’s mother, Teja, had to undergo breast surgery at the time of Kaveri’s
birth.
The savings of the family are running out. They have nothing left to offer right
now but they are still willing to fight for their daughter’s life. They have placed
hope in your kindness and generosity. Please don’t let them down, donate as
much as you can and share the fundraiser with all your friends and family
members.
