4-year-old Hasini suffering from bone marrow cancer needs your help

Story

Hasini is a 4-year-old with an aggressive blood cancer. If she gets treatment, she has a good chance of getting better. But her family's resources are dwindling and they are finding it very hard to continue Hasini's treatment and need help saving her.

Since June, Hasini has been undergoing Chemotherapy which will continue for a total span of six months. She has already finished two months of chemotherapy and has another 4 months to go in order for her to fight the cancer.

For 4-year-old Hasini to have already undergone 2 months of Chemotherapy, it has taken a toll on her body and she is growing weaker and weaker day by day. Further medications are required to help her recover.

While Hasini's parents are worried about their daughter's health, they have an added concern to think of as well. They are not from Hyderabad, which is where Hasini is undergoing treatment. Hence, they have added expenses of accommodation in Hyderabad. Hasini's parents are struggling to pay for her treatment. Now, after paying for 2 months they have exhausted their funds but are not yet ready to give up on their daughter.

“We got her new books and notebooks for school, she was so excited. Now, she has become very quiet. The minute we enter the hospital gate – she stops talking. She cries when they take blood from her or give her injection, but otherwise, she says nothing. It really hurts to see her so scared,” says Suresh.

Suresh has sold what little gold the family has and is now considering selling his small home too to save Hasini. But even if he does that – what he gets will still not be enough to complete Hasini's treatment. Through his sorrow, he feels unable to save his sweet, happy child.

Thank you for the wonderful support that you have shown towards Hasini. She is doing better now compared to earlier and today was the last day of the last chemotherapy session. The doctors are really happy with the response that she has shown towards the treatment.

Dear Supporters,

Here is a quick update on Hasini.

Currently, she is at home and is stable now. She comes for OPD once in two days as her next chemotherapy is scheduled for next week. There are no side effects till now but there is a propensity of developing some infection which is usual in last cycles of the therapy.

After her chemotherapy, she will have to come for her monthly check-ups to keep a tab on her recovery.

Thank you so much for your love and support. Please pray for her speedy recovery.

Regards,
Dr. Sandhya.
