“Since the moment I knew I was pregnant, I prayed every day for a healthy baby. It is heart- wrenching to see my little angel suffer. Amerah has already undergone two surgeries and still, she cannot enjoy her childhood like other babies. My husband works hard every day but we are still unable to pay for our baby's treatment. Please help us! Every penny counts.” -

Mrs.Anju Joy ; (Mother)

Amerah Efra Denson is the eight-month-old baby girl of Mr. Denson George and Mrs.Anju Joy. The baby's father is a fisherman with a monthly income of only Rs. 3,500/-. Her mother is a homemaker. Amerah has a three-year-old elder sister Grace Maria Denson. The family of four lives in a rented house in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala.

Amerah was born with a Neural Tube Defect involving lumbar Meningomyelocele type 2 Arnold Chiari Malformation and urinary problems in SreeAvittamThirunal Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. Normally the cerebrospinal fluid protects the brain, and the spinal cord is present in the tissues of the spine. Meningocele occurs when a fluid sac pushes through the gap between the vertebrae. Chiari malformation causes the brain tissue to extend into the spinal canal. Due to this disorder, when Amerah was born, her legs were numb, and she could not move her legs like a healthy newborn would. She has already undergone two surgeries for the repair of meningomyelocele and ventriculoperitoneal shunting.

Amerah is undergoing physiotherapy for motor development and intermittent catheterization for urinary problems in the KIMS Health Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. Physiotherapy is helping her to move her right leg. However, this is not enough. To recover and move like a normal baby, she needs to continue physiotherapy for another two years. The estimated cost is Rs. 2,00,000/- (Rupees Two Lakhs Only). Amerah's family needs your help to make her recovery possible.
