“My name is Savita, and my son Siddhesh is just 4.5 years old. At an age when he should be safe in my arms, sleeping peacefully and growing stronger each day, my baby is instead fighting a serious heart condition that puts his life at risk every single moment.

Doctors at KIMS Manavata Hospital, Nashik have told us that Siddhesh is suffering from Hemi Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Drainage, a rare heart defect where blood does not flow correctly through his heart and lungs. Because of this, his tiny body struggles to get enough oxygen, leaving him weak and breathless. The doctors have advised an early surgical closure, which is the only way to save his life.

The total cost of his surgery, hospital stay, medicines, and post-operative care is ₹4,00,000, an amount that feels impossible for our family to arrange. As a mother, it breaks me to see my baby struggle when all he wants is comfort and warmth.”

With folded hands and a heart full of hope,
Savita, mother of a 4.5-years-old Siddhesh
