Raj Needs Us – Let’s Help Him Recover
Help Raj Recover from Typhoid Fever – Support Needed for His Journey to Health
Warkworth, Auckland
Raj contracted typhoid fever after traveling to India for a medical emergency. Our father was taken to the ICU and nearly lost his left leg. Raj nursed him back to health until he could stand again. This was at the end of July. Raj returned to Auckland on August 3rd and was rushed to the hospital on August 16th after being given the wrong medication due to a misdiagnosis.
He is now in an induced coma in the High Dependency Unit at North Shore Hospital, where doctors are treating him for typhoid fever. He is on IV fluids, tube-fed, and connected to a ventilator. We do not know when he will recover, and the doctors have not provided a time frame. As his family, we are doing everything we can, but we need your help.
Raj urgently needs financial support to cover rent and essential living expenses while he fights to regain his health. After his discharge, he will face a long and challenging recovery process, both mentally and physically.
Your support, no matter how small, can make a huge difference in helping Raj rebuild his life.
Please consider donating to help Raj get back on his feet. We are deeply grateful for any assistance you can provide.

Use of funds
The money will be spent on covering essential expenses such as rent, power, food, transport and clothing during Raj's recovery period.

Ray of hope 4 September 2024
After two weeks of prayers and restless nights, living in fear of what the phone call brings, the wonderful doctors and nurses at ICU have told us, Raj is making a slow and steady recovery. He is still not out of the woods yet, the doctors are hopeful. He is on the dialysis machine, every day which will gradually move to three days a week. He woke up from sedation on the 28th of August, his vital organs holding steady. the Almighty heard our prayers are answered.
I shall post some pictures in the next few days.
