His 3-Year-Old Screams In Pain But This Vegetable Seller Can’t Do Anything But Watch

Sankar vividly remembers that rainy night in the month of July when he was running around in the streets of Kolkata with their sick child in his wife, Soma’s arms. It was 11 at night when they finally got their 3-year-old son, Souradeep admitted.
 
“His body was burning with fever and he was constantly vomiting. They immediately admitted him to the ICU. As they wheeled my son into the ICU, I didn’t know if I would be able to see him again,” - Soma, mother. 

He puked even if he had a single sip of water

It happened all of a sudden. Souradeep was a happy child - always talking and playing around. The only child of Sankar and Soma, Souradeep was the apple of their eye.
 
“We took such good care of him. And he was a healthy child - no fever, nothing! I still don’t know how all of this happened. The fever, vomiting and now he says he has a severe stomach pain. Nothing I do seems to calm him down.” 

His kidneys are giving up on him - he needs urgent treatment

Souradeep’s kidneys are failing - there are abnormal blood clots in his kidneys. His body produces less red blood cells and platelets. He has been on dialysis and plasmapheresis (a process to filter the plasma portion of the blood) on a regular basis. The port on his neckThat’s his only treatment.
 
“Doctors in our hometown, Agartala, couldn’t tell us what was wrong with my son. The test results gave out nothing. They said the only way we could save him was if he took him to Kolkata on time. After a very difficult train journey, we reached Kolkata and since then he has been on dialysis.” 

He needs it for another 6 weeks - but the question is can we continue his treatment?

Sankar, a vegetable -seller has spent over 4 lakhs for his son’s treatment. On a daily basis, he needs to pay about Rs 8000. He needs another 15 lakhs for Souradeep’s treatment but it’s impossible for him to arrange for so much.
 
“My relatives have gone out of their way to help me but there is only so much they can do. 15 lakhs - it’s a lot! Please help me,” - begs Sankar.
