A spinal deformity has caged Shivadarshini's childhood. Support her treatment.
“I still remember how delighted we were to hold our daughter when she was born. We have borrowed a huge amount already to pay for her check-ups and hospital bills. We have no way left to arrange money for the treatment that will finally free my daughter from pain. Please help us treat our little daughter”
- Bhagya M. ; (Mother)
Shivadarshini, is a six-year-old girl from Chamrajnagar, Karnataka. Her parents dreamt of raising her into a beautiful and healthy child. They took good care of her and were eager to see her walk and play as like a regular child. But fate had written something dreadful for them.
Shivadarshini's parents thought that her delay in crawling and walking is normal, but it started to worry them when they noticed that even after 1.5 years of her birth, Shivadarshini cannot sit or walk properly. Her body seemed to be shifted on one side. Worried, her parents took her to a local hospital where a few check-ups found that she is diagnosed with Congenital Thoracolumbar Scoliosis (a sideways curvature of the spine that is caused by a defect that was present at birth). Shivadarshini's parents took her to Bhagwaan Mahaveer Jain Hospital, Bengaluru, Karnataka, for better treatment.
The doctors suggested vertebral column resection, deformity correction, and fusion as a part of her treatment. It has been four years now that Shivadarshini has not got the treatment yet because of its high cost. the COVID-19 lockdowns had delayed her treatment even further.
Shivadarshini's father, Mr. Maadu works as a daily wage laborer and earns up to ₹ 200/- per day. He is the only earning member in the family of four and must pay a house rent of ₹ 1,000/- per month. The estimated cost of Shivadarshini's treatment is ₹ 5,00,000/- (Rupees Five Lakhs Only). This is beyond the family's financial capabilities. Please support them during this miserable time.
