Parajika is 2-year-old baby who needs an urgent liver transplant. She has been so weakened that she has fallen down and suffered fractures twice. Her growth is stunted and her body could suffer permanent damage if she doesn't get the transplant within a month. Her father Shravan Kumar is a milkman and needs financial support to save Parajika.
“We waited over 10 years for a child – we know the value of its life”
Shravan and Sunanda did not have children for a long time. After 13 years, Sunanda finally became pregnant giving a new hope to the couple. Shravan, who runs a milk supply shop in a small village near Medak, hired an assistant so he could focus on his child. Sunanda always wanted a daughter. A daughter would connect with her and Shravan more deeply. She would make their home joyful and beautiful. Their happiness grew even more when they were told they were having twins. Parajika and Pawan were born on July 4, 2014, to Sunanda and Shravan.
Parajika was the weak baby. She was born with jaundice and took phototherapy right after birth. The parents went home and for the first few months, nothing spoilt their happiness. But by the time she was 3-months-old – they saw that Parajika's jaundice had still not subsided and that's when their nightmare began.
They took Parajika to the hospital. The 1.5 month-old baby was diagnosed with Biliary Artesia and was immediately hospitalised. The bile produced in her liver was damaging her liver instead of being stored in the duct. The doctors performed a small surgery to ease her condition, but it did not help.
Baby Parjika is now, two and half year old, suffering from BILLIARY ATRESA, Doctors suggested her for the liver transplantation for the permanent cure. The approximate cost for the said treatment expected to be Rs.16. lakhs (Hospital copy enclosed).The above diagnosis and said treatment was suggested about 6 months back till date we are continuing with the supporting treatment due to financial limitation for the liver transplantation.
Despite the surgery being a success, the doctors told Sunanda and Shravan that a liver transplant needed to be performed as soon as possible.
Parajika's growth has been marred by liver disease
Parajika is a growing baby, but all her growth has been affected by liver disease. While her natural instinct is to move and explore the world around Parajika doesn't know that her body is not ready. She has always been underweight. She started walking only after she turned two, and even when she manages to stand, she tends to fall. She has suffered two fractures so far.Chronic jaundice has turned Parajika's eyes yellow
Sunanda and Shravan are facing the very real prospect of losing their long awaited 2-year-old baby. They have so far done everything they can think of to save her. Support them in saving their daughter today.
As a parent Shravan's occupation is to supply milk to the households on daily basis and my wife is a home maker. With the limited economic resources we are managing our livelihood on a day to day basis.
By considering the family's economic condition few well wishers have supported for the said treatment. They were able to mobilize about 20% financial support from various sources. Help save Parajika through this Liver Transplant treatment to the maximum possible from your organization.
