“My husband died just a few months ago. My 78-year-old father is going through cancer treatment. And now my little girl is fighting kidney failure. I have lost so much already. If something happens to her too, I don’t think I can survive it.” — Anuradha, mother
She was just three when her health started declining. What began as a small swelling turned into a devastating kidney disorder. Despite years of medication, her condition only worsened. She’s constantly tired, weak, and in pain—but she never complains. The doctors say that without a transplant, even her heart, eyesight, and hearing could be at risk.
“She used to love school, painting, and dancing. Even when she felt weak, she tried her best. But now she studies at home during dialysis. She asks why she has to be in pain all the time. She is scared of the dialysis tube that goes through her stomach, but she never complains.”— Anuradha
‘My father is battling stomach cancer’
Anuradha’s husband passed away in January 2025 due to fatty liver disease. After his death, her in-laws walked away from them. She now lives with her daughter and her elderly father, who is battling stomach cancer. Anuradha works as a tailor, but her income is barely enough to cover daily expenses, let alone the cost of treatment.
“I was left to deal with everything on my own. No one even asks how she is doing. It hurts, but I can’t waste time feeling sad. I have to stay strong for my daughter and my poor cancer-ridden father.”— Anuradha, tearfully
‘I’m ready to give her my kidney—but I don’t have the money to save her’
Doctors have said her daughter urgently needs a kidney transplant. Anuradha is a match and is ready to donate her kidney. But she has already spent over ₹4 lakhs and now needs ₹10 lakhs more for the transplant. Without a stable job and steady income, it is impossible for her to arrange this right in time to save her child.
“She is my only child. I will give her my kidney. I will do anything. But I don’t have the money. Please help me save her. She’s just a child. She deserves to grow up, to live, to smile again.” — Anuradha
