    Over a week ago, our brave little Vihaana was hospitalized again due to pneumonia, and the exact cause is still unknown. She had a bronchoscopy two days ago to help pinpoint the cause, but we are still waiting on some of the results.

    Vihaana is still on oxygen and is receiving a combination of antibiotics, antivirals, and antifungal medications. So far, she has had one red blood cell transfusion (PRBC) and two platelet transfusions. Sadly, her condition requires continued hospitalization, and her medical bill increases every day as she remains on oxygen, with no expected discharge date yet.

    We've attached a copy of her current running bill, and it continues to rise. We would be deeply grateful for any help from Helping Hands to ensure Vihaana can complete her treatment and allow her family to cover the costs of their extended stay in India.

    Thank you for your ongoing support, and please keep Vihaana in your thoughts as she continues to fight this battle.

  • Vihaana's battle continues

      13 September 2024

    Vihaana underwent her second transplant , but unfortunately, complications prolonged her hospital stay to three months.

    Vihaana has just been discharged after this lengthy and difficult hospitalization. Her parents have used all their savings to cover the medical bills and are now struggling to meet the costs of her outpatient care.

    Vihaana still requires close monitoring and has been receiving IV injections twice a day for the past week. These treatments are critical to her recovery, but her family is now facing an impossible financial situation. They need approximately $10,000 FJD to cover the cost of completing her treatment. Without this, they fear they may have to return home before her care is finished.

    We are reaching out to kind hearts for any support that can help Vihaana complete her treatment and return home healthy. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a world of difference in helping this brave little girl.

    Thank you for your kindness and generosity.
