"In the last 3 years, life has been brutal on us. In this time, my dearest brother who just turned 18 this year, was diagnosed with blood cancer. His aspiration of becoming a professional choreographer ended, I had to quit my studies, my father sold his auto to save him. And now once again cancer has relapsed making my brother immobile and appear lifeless. I may not see him dancing again but I still have hopes to see him smile once again. With a bill of 21 lacs till today, I don't know how Am I able to save him" - Suraj, Rupesh's Brother
Rupesh was a happy boy. He was equally loved in his family, the circle of friends and even by his dance partners. He was a fun loving character and always put a smile on everyone's face.
Rupesh was in 9th standard when the tragedy struck the family. Just after his annual exams ended, Rupesh frequently fell ill constantly complained about weakness.
"Initially we thought it was due to change of weather and the doctor treated him with the usual antibiotics. However, it was something else because never before Rupesh had ever missed his dance practice due to illness"
Since he is condition did not improve the doctors ran few tests and it was confirmed that a blood cancer called AML was damaging his body.
Rupesh successfully underwent a bone marrow transplant in 2015 with help of his elder sister Preeti as the donor and was going strong on the road to recovery. He had been healthy for a year till last year, however, the disease came back this August and caused severe blood clotting in his brain.
On 21st August Rupesh suffered a massive brain hemorrhage, which left him bedridden and unconscious for almost a month. However, Rupesh is showing signs of recovery and slowly beating the battle with the disease.
Why should you contribute?
" My father is an auto driver, during Rupesh's initial BMT transplant my father had to sell his auto, some land in our native place and had to borrow money from all my relatives. He barely makes 70 thousand rupees annually, since we had no money left and someone needed to take care of my brother. I had to quit my college during my first year Bcom"
Rupesh's has got support from his school friends, neighbors even his dance teacher Mr. Ayshaan has arranged funds for his treatment but those funds are not enough.
