Navadeep had an injury just 10 days back. He was playing at school when he fell down. Lack of correct medical attention led to a terrible leg infection. The infection has become severe and reached his lungs. He is in the ICU fighting it off. His father is back in the village and his mother Nagamani is running from pillar to post trying to save her child.
Nagamani is trying her best to save Navadeep who is fighting for his life in the ICU now
The next morning, Navadeep woke up crying with pain. Nagamani decided to take him to the nearest town Khammam and see the doctor there. Once again, the dressing on his leg was changed and he was sent home with some painkillers. Navadeep's leg continued to worsen though he visited the hospital every second day.
Navadeep is in the hospital and his blood pressure and heartbeat needs constant monitoring
Navadeep's injury developed an infection that led to a big clot in his right leg. The hampered blood flow caused a big clot in his heart which has affected his lungs and breathing. He needs strong antibiotics, breathing support and constant monitoring of the infection in the ICU.
Nagamani sits vigil outside ICU day and night. She has left her 4-year-old younger daughter Saranya with her mother. When she remembers her small, happy daughter, she sheds a few tears for leaving her alone. But nothing will move her from Navadeep's side right now when he is so sick.
Navadeep is the one she relies on most heavily. He comes back home from school and goes to his grandmother's home to eat and pick up his little sister. He shares his mother's household chores because he knows how tired she is from work. His kind, loving nature is his mother's greatest source of happiness.
Nagamani's family has arranged for Rs 3 lakhs till now. With Navadeep in the hospital they are struggling to arrange for further treatment which is the only way to save him now.
Your contribution can give this mother a shot at saving her precious child.

I come back home by 9 p.m. and I know he will call me in case any thing happens. I took him to so many doctors and yet this happened. All he has said in the last few days is how much his leg hurts. Now with the pipes in his mouth he can't even speak.”
