Satwik Das, a 1-year-old baby from Kolkata, needs a liver transplant. Suffering from Biliary Artesia, his liver is very damaged. In just one year, he has had two surgeries due to his condition. His father Sushanto is the sole breadwinner of the family and he does not have funds for the liver transplant that Satwik needs.
Satwik has BiliaryArtesia – a condition in which the bile produced by the liver isnot stored in the bile duct but stays in the liver – causingpainful damage to the organ. Diagnosed when he was just a month old, Satwik underwent surgeries in June and October 2016, but they did not help his condition. Only a liver transplant can save Satwik.
Now, Satwik is a joyful baby delighting in saying his first words and learning to walk. “He has started speaking his first works and is growing. His happiness only makes us more determined that we somehow save him. He an innocent baby who deserves to live,” says his father Sushanto.
