Baby Who Underwent 5 Surgeries After A Transplant Is In Need Of Urgent Help

“Whenever they take my 1-year-old son, Samriddho inside the operation theatre, I pray a little, hoping that this shouldn’t be the last time that I see him. After 5 surgeries in just a year, my baby has been reduced to bones. There’s no part of his body that hasn’t been pierced with needles multiple times. His face is covered with tubes. My little champ has held on so well that even the doctors say he is a fighter. But I don’t know how long is it before his little body gives up,” Sourav, Samriddho’s father.

This 1-year-old was just recovering from a liver transplant when his condition worsened

Little Samriddho’s sufferings started just after he was born. He was diagnosed with biliary atresia, a condition in which bile ducts are blocked or completely absent. The little baby underwent a liver transplant in February when he was just 9 months old. After a painful battle of several months, Sourav thought that finally, his baby will be happy and healthy. But his happiness didn't last long.

“Four months after the transplant, my wife Madhumita and I found out that he had a tonsil swelling. A few days later, he vomited blood. He had lost so much blood that we were scared we willl lose him. Since then he’s sufferings haven’t stopped”- Sourav, father

He underwent 5 surgeries after the transplant

Samriddho now suffers from 'Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder' -  a serious complication that occurs in people after a transplant. This could causes infections, perforations and will turn fatal without critical treatment. Baby Samriddho has undergone 5 surgeries after the transplant. Due to this, he cannot be fed and has to depend on liquid supplements.
