I've been a father for 13 days.

In those 13 days, I haven't slept more than 2-3 hours straight. I haven't eaten a proper meal. I haven't smiled once.

Today, my wife held our son for exactly 2 minutes. The doctors let her. She hadn't held him since he was born premature, rushed to NICU, put on a ventilator within an hour.

    Dear Donor's,

    Our son is still on the ventilator. He still can't breathe on his own. He still has a serious infection his body is fighting. We are on a long journey

    The Good News:

    He's not getting worse. The infection isn't spreading. His body is responding to treatment. The doctors say he has a "favorable prognosis" if we complete the full treatment.

    What We Know:
    -    Ventilator still running 24/7
    -Antibiotics still fighting infection
    -Incubator still providing support
    -His tiny body still fighting

    What We Don't Know Yet:

    When he'll be ready to come off the ventilator. When the infection will fully clear. When we'll get to bring him home.

    Without your donations, none of this is possible. Every single rupee you gave is being used RIGHT NOW to keep him alive.

    We're not celebrating yet. But we're not giving up either.

    Thank you for believing in him.

    - Yuvraj's Family
