‘Christmas Appeal 2016’ : Charity launches appeal to assist the needy with medical conditions
The appeal begins with the heart-throbbing story of a 13 year old girl from Pathanapuram in Kollam district of Kerala, who is suffering from leukaemia at her young age. Sneha was diagnosed with this life threatening condition three years ago and her desperate father Mr. Satish Babu is struggling to save his daughter by any means. But his job as a bus driver would not help him at all to meet the huge expenses of treatment as the initial investigation was done at Regional Cancer Centre at Thiruvananthapuram. Subsequent treatments were given at Vellore Medical Centre and now, Sneha has been admitted into Madhura Meenakshi Hospital where only reasonable expenses are to be borne by the family compared to other places. However, stem cell transplant is the only solution to cure the disease which costs around Rs. 12 lakhs. The family finds it very difficult to raise this exorbitant amount as they are already in huge debt and financial obligations due to the ongoing treatments.
