In November 2023, my mother was diagnosed with cervical cancer.
She underwent surgery to remove her uterus and ovaries, followed by radiation and brachytherapy. It was an incredibly difficult journey, but by March 2024, her treatment was complete, and we finally believed life was returning to normal.
Then everything changed.
She began experiencing rectal bleeding and difficulty passing stools. We were told these could be delayed side effects of radiation.
We hoped they were.
In June 2026, an MRI, PET-CT scan, and biopsy confirmed our worst fear—her cancer had returned.
It had recurred in the cervical vault and spread to her bladder and rectum. She was diagnosed with recurrent Stage IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix.
On 29 June 2026, she started treatment with Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, and Nivolumab.
After weeks of uncertainty, she smiled again. She laughed, spoke more, and for a moment, it felt like we had our mother back.
Advanced molecular testing (PD-L1, HER2, and MMR) ruled out several targeted treatment options. However, her oncology team believes her current treatment plan offers the best chance forward.
She now requires six cycles of chemotherapy with immunotherapy, after which doctors will reassess her condition and decide the next phase of treatment, which may include continued immunotherapy, surgery, or other therapies.
Based on her current treatment plan and the expenses expected over the coming months—including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, scans, medicines, investigations, possible surgery, travel, accommodation, and supportive care, we are raising ₹30 lakh to help her complete treatment without interruption.
Before asking for help, we exhausted our savings, nearly exhausted our insurance, and relocated to another city so treatment could begin without delay.
Today, we need your support.
Every contribution will go directly towards my mother's treatment and medical expenses.
If you're unable to donate, sharing this campaign with your friends, family, or colleagues would mean the world to us.
We are committed to complete transparency and will continue sharing medical reports, hospital estimates, invoices, and treatment updates throughout her journey.
My mother isn't fighting for anything extraordinary.
She's fighting for the chance to visit her local market, cook for the people she loves, and live without pain.
If you've read our story, thank you.
Whether you donate, share this campaign, or keep her in your prayers, you're giving our family hope.
She spent her life caring for everyone else.
Today, we're asking for your help to care for her.
