Dear Supporter,

We all came together to help baby of Nagaveni recover and reunite with his parents. The support was overwhelming and it gave the parents a chance to be with their newborn son. His treatment was going on well and he was discharged from the hospital. But his condition deteriorated and he could not make it.

Keshav and Nagaveni are still not in terms with this news. Despite our best efforts it's unfortunate that he is not with us. May the little one rest in peace.

We are constantly trying to reach the parents to ensure they are okay and we pray they find strength in this time of grief.
