This is Krista, she's 8yrs. old. Her dad, Yousuf Immanuel was a hard working, self-sufficient car driver with a salary of  ₹12,000 pm. Her mother Kavitha, a house maid earned ₹6,000/-. Krista and her lil brother 4yrs. were well cared for by their parents, they were a happy family!

Their world changed drastically when their beloved father Yousuf was diagnosed with 3rd stage rectal cancer in August 2016.

Both parents couldn't go to work. Kavitha had to constantly be by her husband's side, regular visits to the hospital for treatment, taking care of all his basic needs. The small children had to sometimes manage on their own.

To add to the emotional and mental trauma the family had to sell what little they owned and take loans to cover medical and basic requirements and many a time didn't have enough even to eat. Their rent was deducted monthly from the security deposit, which came to an end June 2017. The landlord demanded a new deposit of 20,000/- or to vacate.By the grace of God and a few kind hearted folks the family is barely surviving. 

An appeal for prayers and whatever financial aid is immediately required to cover medical bills, food, rent, school fees for the year and to save any remaining amount for the children's future, after clearing depts of more than a lakh rupees.

 Enclosed below are some details of Yousuf's medical status and for any further details please feel free to get in touch with me. Thank you for reading. God bless!
