Over the past year, there hasn’t been a day when 2-year-old Antima hasn’t struggled to breathe. Despite her endless suffering, the little one has been bravely fighting the battle for life. However now, his heart is slowly running out of time.

My dughter's heart will give up on him any moment if she doesn’t get an urgent surgery. We won’t be able to live if we lose her. But we can’t afford to save her either,” cries Saroj Devi, who has been living under the constant fear of losing her child.

The little one has been through hell

Back in 2021, soon after Shoheb turned one, her health started deteriorating. “She’d constantly be sick and became very irritable. One day, she got a severe fever. Her body was burning so we rushed her to the hospital,” recalls Saroj. 

The little one was diagnosed with congenital heart disease- large ventricular septal defect. “One look at my baby and she seems so healthy and happy. But only we know how much she is suffering” says Saroj.

Because of herdisease, Antima is constantly in discomfort. Unlike other kids of her age, she can’t even play as it makes her condition worse. The little one struggles to breathe properly. She barely sleeps and even refuses to eat or drink anything.

Her parents, however, still don’t know the intricacies of her disease. All they know is that her heart will fail is they don’t arrange the funds for his treatment urgently.

Can’t save daughter with a laborer’s income

Saroj is already drowning in debt. Ever since her son’s disease was diagnosed, She has taken multiple loans to fund her treatment. Her husband is physically challanged and runs a small shop in village of Bihar. Other than that shop they do not have any medium of addition income. Saroj used to work as a labourer in fields but after the birth of antima she left her work as antima needs care 24*7. She all the way from bihar travalled to delhi for her daughter treatment. Her little income goes into running her household and repaying the loans from the pastIt’s impossible for him to arrange INR 45000 urgently for her daughter’s surgery.

How can you help?

Antima is a lively child. However, her disease is slowly overpowering her life. If she doesn’t get the surgery urgently, her heart will stop beating. Your small donations can give her a gift of life. Please help her.
