What is the worst thing that you as a parent may wake up to one morning? Seeing your loved one having difficulty in breathing and later being diagnosed by a life-threatening disease is a nightmare come true for every parent. But this is exactly what transpired in Manoj's life one fine morning when his daughter was affected with a condition called Necrotising Pneumonia Empyema.
Though a line up of surgeries promised to save Nirvi's life, the only thing that was the hurdle on the path was the finances. She had undergone the first part of her surgery called VATS (Video Assisted Thorascoscopic Surgery), and she would need a constant supply of medications and tests, combined with a couple of more surgeries to get her back home. The total cost of the procedure, as estimated by the hospital would be around 15 lakhs. But how would a man from a lower middle-class family procure such a huge amount?
Procuring the entire sum of money was way out of his league. This is when he heard of fundraisers, which help people in such situations. Though he was aware of how crowdfunding works, he had no idea that he would need it for his only daughter some day.
Oneindia is a great platform which supports such causes wholeheartedly. We at Oneindia, believe in setting an example for others to follow. When our sources got in touch with Nirvi's father, we could see the tears in his eyes. Not the sad ones, but tears of hope of seeing his daughter returning back home, hail and hearty. What was a distant dream to them was quickly realised by the timely help of Oneindia donors, who were quick in donating generously to this cause.
It took no time for Oneindia to raise 15 lakhs for Nirvi's surgeries. Thanks to all the donors who connect with us and help make this world a better place to live. Nirvi has now undergone all the treatments required and is on her way to recovery.
Read their soul-wrenching story below.
It
all
started
in
November
last
year
when
Manoj's
2-year-old
daughter
Nirvi
was
suffering
from
a
cough
and
cold.
Thinking
of
it
as
a
normal
case
of
infection,
she
was
taken
to
a
local
doctor
and
was
prescribed
a
regular
dose
of
medication
to
subside
the
symptoms.
But
her
condition
deteriorated
even
after
taking
the
entire
dosage
as
prescribed.
The
doctors
then
started
with
a
series
of
tests
that
were
supposed
to
determine
the
exact
problem
with
Nirvi.
Meanwhile,
her
condition
worsened
to
a
point
where
she
was
just
unable
to
fall
asleep.
Then
came
the
result
of
a
blood
test
that
revealed
a
blood
infection.
This threw Nirvi's parents off guard.
Coming from a humble background, Nirvi's family is from a humble town called Airoli. Nirvi's father being a technician in the Western railways, had a meagre income of Rs 20,000/- per month. Being the sole breadwinner of a family of five is a bit difficult with such income and the inflation.
But nothing prepared them for what lay ahead for their family and their dear daughter Nirvi.
One
night,
however,
things
took
an
ugly
turn
for
Nirvi's
family
as
she
suddenly
woke
up
in
the
middle
of
the
night
completely
out
of
breath.
Concerned,
her
parents
immediately
rushed
her
to
the
hospital
where
they
got
the
shock
of
their
lives.
Shortly
after
being
admitted
to
the
hospital,
a
sonogram
was
performed.
Nirvi's
parents
were
then
informed
that
their
daughter
was
suffering
from
a
life-threatening
disease
-
Necrotising
Pneumonia
Emphyema.
This
news
completely
broke
her
parents.
It is during this time that Oneindia came into the picture and saved Nirvi's life.
"Nirvi is a brave girl who fought through her illness. But all this wouldn't have been possible without your timely support. She is doing quite well now and has returned home. Nirvi still has to visit the hospital for her regular checkups but she is more than happy to resume her normal way of life. Thank You OneIndia for giving back our daughter."
