32 year old Dr. Kiran Kalel, ENT surgeon at Sion Hospital, was diagnosed with Ependymoma Grade II of the spinal cord in July 2007. He has been operated upon twice since then at Hinduja Hospital, Mumbai by Dr. Basant Misra. Considering the sensitive site of the tumour, he has now been advised CyberKnife surgery which cannot be done in India. The nearest and cheapest alternative is Malaysia, where the cost is likely to be Rs. 13-15 lakh, a sum which is beyond the reach of the family. Please help this dedicated doctor to get the treatment he needs by donating generously.
28 year old Gayatri Ramesh has been diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. She
is receiving post induction chemotherapy under the treatment of Dr. Vikram Mathews
at Christian Medical College, Vellore. She has now been advised matched unrelated
donor bone marrow transplant as she does not have any siblings. This is a procedure
which cannot be done in India and costs crores of rupees, which is beyond the reach
of the family. Please help this mother of two to get the treatment she needs by
donating generously.
21
year old Sagar has been diagnosed with Blood Cancer (Acute Myeloid Leukemia)
and is undergoing treatment at CMC Vellore. He needs a Bone Marrow
Transplant at the earliest. He had undergone BMT earlier in July 2005,
unfortunately he relapsed. As his family is not able to finance the
treatment, we request you to donate any amount possible for helping to cover
the cost of the treatment and save Sagar.

29 years old Ramesh has been diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. He is currently in relapse. He was working as a Database Administrator in Yalamanchili Consultant services, Chennai. His treatment options are very limited. Because this patient does not have HLA matched siblings, we need to explore the possibility of unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Unrelated cord blood stem cell transplantation is the only possibility.
He will need to have a transplant from a non related donor. This procedure has been estimated to cost any where between 40 lakhs to 1 crore rupees (Approx $100000 USD to $250000 USD) depending upon whether the procedure is done in INDIA or ABROAD. Till now we had already spent rupees fifteen lakhs (15, 00,000) (Approx $37,500USD) from our source and by raising loan. Now it is impossible to meet such a huge amount by ourselves. We kindly request you to donate any amount possible for helping to cover the cost of the treatment and save Ramesh.
Vidisha
is a 15 year old girl who was diagnosed with precursor B-ALL in September
2006. She was given chemotherapy under Dr. M.B. Agarwal's care. Five
months into maintenance chemotherapy, focal blasts were detected and hence
a relapse was suspected. She was referred to Christian Medical College,
Vellore where Dr. Mammen Chandy has recommended allogenic peripheral blood
stem cell transplantation. Fortunately, her brother's bone marrow is a
100% match. Vidisha has fought many reversals during her treatment and
conquered each one successfully. The cost of the treatment is estimated to
be Rs. 20 lakh.
The family has already spent Rs. 75 lakh on
her treatment so far. Please help this brave child overcome this hurdle by
donating generously to her cause.
