    from Secunderabad, Telangana

7-month-old baby boy, Yashank, was diagnosed with Congenital Heart Disease a month ago and was asked to undergo a heart surgery.

What is Congenital Heart Disease?
Congenital Heart Disease is a birth defect in the structure of the heart that can be life-threatening if not treated immediately.  

Since his parents, who have a monthly income of only 20000 Rs did not have the funds to pay for their baby's surgery amounting to around 4 lakh Rs, the surgery could not take place at the earliest.

However, things took a turn for the worst on the 7th of October, when Yashank was rushed into the ICU as he was unable to breathe. Doctors felt there was no time to waste and had to immediately do a surgery on his heart to save the baby's life.
Now, Baby Yashank is still in the ICU on ventilator support and will need to remain so in order to get the treatment he deserves to survive.

Yashank's father, Shiva Kumar, is not only worried for his son's life but now has the added pressure of paying the bill both for surgery and supportive treatment which could potentially save his son's life.

Shiva has tried everything but is unable to raise the funds to save his son. He needs our help to bring his 7-month baby back home. Your contribution can give Baby Yashank the life he deserves.
