This is Vijaya (68), initiating this fundraiser for my husband Bhaskara (79). He was admitted to Sagar Hospital at Kumaraswamy Layout, Bangalore on Thursday 10th October for severe discomfort in chest and abdomen.

Doctors initially diagnosed Acute Kidney Disease after routine tests and admitted him to the ICU, started dialysis. Post-dialysis, he developed severe hypoxia and decreased heart beats. He was put on ventilator support for hypoxia and underwent cardiac angiogram which showed a severe blockage in 1 of the arteries. He had an angioplasty for stent placement which costed 2 lakh rupees.

He is still in ICU, undergoing dialysis everyday now with intermittent blood infusions and ecg monitoring. Doctor suggested he remain in the ICU for few more days before he is shifted to a ward.

His medical expenditure as of now is close to 7 lakhs, expected to cost few more lakhs by the time he is discharged. With insurance coverage of only 2.5 lakhs, we have been trying to arrange rest of the money for the medical bills. Your contribution would really help immensely with his care and treatment costs. Also request you to share this link with your friends and family.

Thank you for kind support.
