    This fundraiser will benefit

    Ashwin J.S

    from Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala

Dear All, I request contributions to help one of our kind. Ashwin (the person I am trying to help raise funds for) is a loving, caring and a humble human who is now being tested by time and his creator.
In Nov 2018 his was blessed with a baby boy and was the happiest. Unfortunately in Dec 2018 his father was diagnosed with cancer. Even though his father was unwell he would still juggle between the two, travel to visit his wife and kid as they lived in different locations owing to the Culture and Job requirements. In Jan of 2019 he was informed that his wife wanted to go in for a separation although they were able to get over their differences and work towards unity. May 2019 on his way back from work on his bike he had met with a horrid accident.
He was lucky he had his safety gear on that he was able to survive the accident. The police rushed him to the nearest hospital where they mentioned not having the right equipment to treat him, although did give him first aid. He was moved to another hospital who had also mentioned not having the right equipment. Finally ended up at a hospital that could help him and found out he had multiple fractures, intestines were damaged and was feared to not make it. With the help of the Doctors and facilities they pulled through and made a splendid recovery. Although, his right arm (dominant arm) had to be amputated. He had multiple surgeries to cater to the damaged intestines, fractures ribs and fractured shoulder blade. His wife heard the news and decided she could not handle a baby and a cripple and has requested they go in for a divorce. When he got out of the hospital he was given more bad news but this time it was his father. His Father had succumbed to cancer and had passed away.
The reason I go through this much to help him is, post all this that he endured he still went to work, didn't want to be treated any different and still goes through everything holding his head up. He lives on an 20k INR salary with just him and his mother. The reason i mentioned, "HELP raise funds" is because prosthetic's can be very expensive and we may not be able to raise the entire amount, nonetheless we all will be doing our part of contributing and hope that, what we fall short off can be worked out in some shape or form.
