Help Sheetal Get the Treatment She Deserves

Auckland

Imagine facing a health challenge that requires specialized treatment in another country, with high costs you can’t bear alone. This is the reality for our loved one (Sheetal Shankar) who is in Fiji and in urgent need of medical care that’s available in New Zealand. She is suffering from Lupus Nephritis Class V.

Due to the advanced treatment services here, she has been referred to receive the necessary care, but the expenses are overwhelming. That’s where you come in. Your support can help cover the costs, giving her a chance at a healthier future.

Every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to making this treatment possible. Together, we can make a real difference in her journey to healing.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Update  25 April 2025

Hey everyone

I am pleased to update you on my sis in laws progress since her arrival in Auckland. Under the expert guidance of the Doctor she will receive private treatment over the next three months. She has already undergone her first infusion. During the course of treatment, the Doctor has identified the need for additional kidney specialist input and has referred her to a renowned nephrologist. As you know, private consultations and interventions in New Zealand incur substantial costs.

We write to express our deepest gratitude to each of you who has so generously contributed to her medical fund. Your kindness has already made a profound difference in her care and comfort. On behalf of our families—and on behalf of Sheetal herself—thank you for standing with us in this journey toward her recovery.

Our fundraising efforts will continue throughout the coming three months, as we remain hopeful that her condition will improve and her disease will come under control. Every donation, in any amount, sustains her treatment plan and brings her closer to a renewed health.

With heartfelt thanks for your ongoing support and compassion. Please keep sharing this link to as many friends, relatives or acquaintances as you can.
