It all started when Likhit complained of bleeding in gums
Likhit has been a very healthy, happy and an active child, however, since last one year he has been suffering from low immunity which doesn't allow any type of wound to heal quickly. It all started when Likhit complained of pain in gums and then eventually started bleeding.
Initially, the doctor was unable to diagnose what actually had happened and gave him antibiotics and medicines to heal the wound. However the occurrence of bleeding become frequent and doctors had to make a lot of efforts to stop Likhit from bleeding.
Likhit was referred to St John's hospital and from there he was taken to cmc, where after running a serious test it was identified that he was suffering from Leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) type 2. Leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD), is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by immunodeficiency resulting in recurrent infections.Individuals with LAD suffer from bacterial infections beginning in the neonatal period.
The doctors suggested the only way to save him his by undergoing a bone marrow transplant. The parents agreed to ahead with treatment, however they do not have sufficient funds to arrange for his treatment.
Why should you contribute?
Bharat has been idealson, brother, father and A husband. Despite being the youngest one in the family he has been taking care of everyone.
Bharat's father used to own a transport company, however, he incurred heavy losses in the business and had to eventually shut his business down, the loss resulted in losing their own home and take up a house on rent.
Since a young age Bharat took the responsibility of his house and working very hard to make his family lead a comfortable life.
Bharat takes care of all the expenses in the family. With an income of 30 thousand arrange 33 lakhs for a BMT transplant looks like a daunting task for him.
Bharat already has exhausted his savings close to Rs 3 lakhs on the treatment of the child and has now ran out of sources from where he can arrange funds.
