“I felt like the happiest person when I got to know that I was going to be a mother again. But it was only the 7 month of pregnancy when my water broke. I was so scared when I saw my baby for the first time, he was so small and weak that my heart sank as I watched him gasp for breath. I couldn’t hold him, I couldn’t kiss him, I...I just felt like dying at that moment.”
-Swati, mother
His life is threatened by Multiple Organ Failure
Swati’s baby boy was prematurely born in 30 weeks, due to which the child suffers from very low birth weight. He suffers from inflammation in the lung causing respiratory distress and his life is threatened by sepsis that can damage multiple organ systems. The family ran from pillar to post and managed to keep him alive for almost 8 weeks but now when the child is almost cured, they struggle to continue the treatment. Few more weeks in the ICU can save his life.
I wanted a better life for my baby but I am failing to keep him alive
“I studied only till 10th and I know how hard life gets without proper education. I struggled to find a job and when I got one I was too afraid to switch, unable to take the risk. So I wanted to give my children a better education, a better life but now, I am not even able to keep my son alive let alone all the dreams I had for him. I am failing as a father, very miserably. I don’t know what to do..." Kamal, father, unable to continue
Kamal works as a helper in a medical store and with his income, there is hardly anything left by the end of the month to save or even buy something nice for his family. The couple has to plan for months even to buy a piece of cloth. To afford their child’s treatment, they took loans and borrowed from friends and family but now they have no source or means left.
He needs your help to survive
“If all this was not enough, my son now suffers from painful swollen boils that are filled with pus. It is so serious that the doctors are saying he needs an operation to stop the infection from spreading and that too in the next 2-3 days. How will I arrange so much money from? Please help me save my son, you are my only hope!” - Kamal
