Our cousin Kumar, 33,
living in Hyderabad India, is suffering with a very rare genetic disease
called “Wilson’s Disease”. Wilson's disease is an inherited disorder in
which there is too much copper in the body's tissues. The excess copper damages
the liver and slowly affects the brain and nervous system. His two elder
brothers lost their lives to this same genetic disease.
In India
there is no insurance coverage for a liver transplant and his family is left to
come up with the amount of the transplant which costs around US $60,000 (25-30
lakh Indian rupees). His parents are
left with little money as they have spent much helping with his other two
deceased brother’s medical bill
We
understand that we all have our own circumstances that may or may not allow us
to donate so please do not feel obligated.
This cause is very close to our hearts and that is why we have decided
to try and help raise the money so that the liver transplant can take
place. If this story touches your heart
and you have the means please donate! Any
amount big or small would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
so much, Kamal and Amber Thota
