Story
Updates (5)

Harsh Sandeep is a 6-year-old with a blood disorder that requires him to get a blood transfusions once in 25 days. The numerous blood transfusions will lead to iron accumulation in his organs causing permanent damage. The only cure for his condition is a bone-marrow transplant (BMT) which the family cannot afford.

“When Harsh was a 6-month-old baby, one day he just turned on one side and didn't do anything. He wouldn't make any noise, he wouldn't feed, he wouldn't get up and crawl,” recalls his mother Swati. After a few days, his worried parents decided to take him to the doctor who diagnosed him with Thalessemia Major.

Dear Supporters,

Thanks a lot for your wonderful support….

It is very painful to provide blood every 10 days. Harsh is fed up of that, each time he cries a lot and ask why only me, when I will cure ?? But we don't have any answer.

On 22 Jun we have started the BMT half match process. We need to go through 3 cycles (3 day in 15 days) of chemo and after that 1 month admission for BMT process. Already 1st chemo is started.Samples of parents are given, either one’s stem cell will be taken during the process. Once the test results are in we will update you further

Please spread the word across your friend circle to support for Harsh's BMT campaign.

Regards,

Dear Supporters,

Thank you for your love and support. This couldn't have been possible without you.

Harsh is yet to undergo the transplant. The doctors have told us that the only curative treatment is a bone marrow transplant. But he does not have a fully matched donor in the family. There was a potential 10/10 matched unrelated donor in DKMS (German Registry), but unfortunately he has refused to donate. Hence,the doctors are now planning to do a Haplo Identical (half match) Bone Marrow Transplant using alpha/beta depletion kit. Hence, the cost of the treatment is now increased to about Rs. 36.5 lacs.

Attached is the revised cost estimation letter from the hospital for your reference:

Please keep praying for the baby. Shall keep you posted.
