It has been a long while without any updates. I had been holding it off to give some positive news. Unfortunately it has not been a smooth sailing. Babu developed some more complications in between. There was an abnormal accumulation of fluid around the heart negatively impacting the heart. He was in and out of th ICU. He had to go through a couple of other processes to drain the fluid at regular intervals. So they had to hold off the transplant. They restarted the dialysis again and the good news is that we may finally be on track. In between, there was an issue with the paper work regarding approvals from the donor. A couple of friends are at work on it.
Please keep him in your prayers

Dear Supporters, It was a short vacation for me. I met Babu and he asked me to thank you all on his behalf. He has been having some more health issues and the doctors have increased the dialysis from 3 a week to 4. But he has been positive about the entire process and is being strong. The paperwork has been going a bit slow. Approvals from government offices is a task by itself. My friend Mahesh has been doing a great job coordinating all the activities. As of now, we expect the expenses to be around Rs.2,70,000 (~$4200) (plasma X 6 times and dialysis X 12) before the surgery.
Thank you again to all the new contributors. God bless.
Please help out and do spread the word.

Dear Supporters,
I am in Coimbatore on vacation this week. It has been great meeting up with old friends. We have managed to get some more funds externally and I have now revised the goal. The paper work for the donor has just started. Once this is done, we will start on the Plasmapheresis. We are targeting end of June for now.
Thank you all for your support
