Dear Supporters,

Thank you for the wonderful support you have shown towards Aditya.

Aditya has successfully undergone the transplant. He is currently at the hospital and recovering from the surgery. He was shifted to ICU after his surgery, so that doctors could closely monitor his health.

There are no post-surgery complications, and he will be discharged during this week. Doctors have prescribed medicines and have asked us to come for the follow-ups so that his dosage can maintained accordingly.

Thank you once again. Please pray for his speedy recovery.
Regards,
Mother

Dear supporters,

Thank you for the overwhelming support for Aditya's transplant. Here's an update on his health and next steps.

Upon diagnosis, we found that Aditya had not received any live safety, vaccines  in the past like chickenpox and MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) which are recommended to be delivered before a transplant since they can't be administered post transplant. So we had to give those vaccines to him.

Post immunization,  we have to wait for 2-3 weeks before transplant can be carried out. So we've discharged him from hospital in the interim to readmit in couple of weeks

Also in the mean time his aunt, who's the organ donor will be investigated. As mentioned in the story, Aditya has a very rare disorder called MSUD  and we were the first in world to do liver tranplant for this condition.  We cannot use parents as donors as they are heterozygotes (different alleles of the gene).

We'll keep you updated on the progress.

Regards,
Dr Neelam Mohan
