Panchali is suffering from Lymphoblastic Leukemia, a type of blood cancer for which she needs painful chemotherapy. Unable to do anything else, Mohan tries to at least make her laugh through her pain. He tells her stories and plans for trips to take her on after she gets cured. But inside he worries it may never happen. “You can imagine it yourself - a 7 year old with cancer... going through all the chemo cycles and having injections on a regular basis... she always looks terrified. Her body aches and she is so weak that she can’t even get up from her bed without support. What should I tell her when she asks in her faint voice... ‘when can we go home? My daughter was suffering with high fever and we were afraid it was Dengue as it is on the rise these days but after consulting our doctor he suggested to run some blood tests and in the meanwhile we found a small swelling on her thigh. For two days Panchali complained of having pain in different parts of her body, coupled with fever. We couldn’t understand why at first, and when we finally did it was devastating. Doctors suggested to do bone marrow test and as the results came we found out my little girl has cancer. I have been doing farming for a decade now. But for the past three years, there’s drought and I have had a huge loss. To clear my debt I had to sell my wife’s jewels and even a piece of land that I owned. Still, I am neck-deep in debt and had to take up a job in construction sites to manage the household expenses. Now I have nothing left with me and no one is ready to even lend me money. It is my wife’s parents who are managing my child’s medical expenses with their savings. I don’t want to trouble them anymore and am looking for ways to pay for my childs treatment. She requires chemotherapy and other treatments to comepletely cured and it requires a huge sum of Rs.6.5 Lakhs for her treatment. I want to save my only daughter’s life but don’t know where should I go and to whom should I beg? We desperately need your help to save our dying child. In this desperate time we approached CARF and they are supporting us to fund our daughter’s treatment.We request the help of all generous peopleto save my daughter. Please help us."
