Rishi is suffering from Pancreatic Cancer and admitted in Chennai Apollo .He has gone through 6 chemotherapies and one major surgery to remove tumor, which is unsuccessful so far. They have spent around 30 lacs .
His family is financially unstable and they require more money for further treatment. We are trying to raise some fund for him.
Your little help can save someone. Please do contribute.

Sequence of events-
1. Rishi had pain in stomach last November. The doctor told him its jaundice. But even after one week of medication pain didn’t stop.
2. Then Rishi got admitted to where doctor informed his bile duct had some blockage and a plastic pipe was put in his stomach for passage of urine. Plastic pipe got bent and later replaced by a metallic one.
3. Rishi went to his native while on medication. Initially after operation , he was good but after one month he complained of pain again. And in 4th week of January he came to Mumbai.
4. Started medication , After one and half month he felt good. Doctor took a ct scan and told everything is fine.
5. In mid April his pain increased , He rushed to Apollo, Chennai this time and there they investigated and found tumor in pancreas, and the tumor had spread to nodes.
6. They immediately started chemotherapy. Side effects began to be seen and doctors informed chemotherapy is responding well.
7. But after 3 cycles the condition was still not what doctors had hoped and decided to continue with another 3 cycles of chemotherapy. 6 is the most a body can take.
8. Meanwhile doctors also looked for possibility of removing tumor with surgery. But size of tumor was too big so they couldn’t do it.
9. After about a month or so of last chemo, condition didn’t improve. Pain was still there. Chief surgeon decided to take a chance with operation and take out tumor, which was again unsuccessful.

Currently, because of all medicines and operation, he is too weak to talk or walk and can’t eat. He has gone to Hyderabad to try immunotherapy .

Dear Supporters,

Thank you for your tremendous love. This means a lot to us. Unfortunately, Rishi passed away. He was in the last stage of cancer and his body started giving up eventually. He fought bravely and he shall forever live in our memories.

Thank you again for being so supportive.

Dear Supporters,

Thank you for supporting Rishi in these tough times.

The surgery has almost made the situation tougher for him with increase in pain. He is not able to digest food, but he is able to swallow fluids. During the surgery the doctors had removed the earlier stent, and have inserted a new stent in its place.

They have also inserted a food pipe in the left side of his stomach. He is really weak and has difficulty in walking. He is still quite positive and hopeful, and we need to lift his spirits by constantly interacting with him through messages as he reads all of them.

Regarding his treatment:
1. Cancer Healer Center, Hyderabad: They give natural medicine also known as immunotherapy. During his first dose of medicine, he felt that pain had subsided but his body was weak and he was not able to continue taking these doses.

He told us that there are injections which costs around a Lakh per injection. He is hopeful of regaining some strength after having Shimoga medicines and then will continue this immunotherapy doses.

2. Shimoga Ayurvedic medicines: He will start taking these medicines from this week. He will have to take these medicines for 1 month. He can have both the medicines side by side if his body is strong enough to take these together. He said that total expenditure for this will be around 20 lakhs.

I have assured him that this will be taken care of collectively and he need not be worried, at least about this aspect.

So friends, let’s not lose the momentum. We have to keep our effort in raising till 20 lakhs and even more than that in case of need.

Thank you all!

Shilpi

Dear Supporters,

Thank you all for your support.

Rishi is on his 3rd stage of Panceras cancer and is not doing very well. He is currently undergoing herbal treatment in Hyderabad and is in the hospital right now. We are hoping this immunotherapy will improve his health to undergo further treatment.

The doctors suggest that he should not be given more chemotherapy treatment as he has already received six cycles of chemotherapy and the human body cannot withstand more than that. Since he has become so weak, he is not being given chemotherapy.

I request you all to please keep him in your prayers and share this campaign. Thank you all for your continued love.

Regards,
Shilpi
