    Story

    Through our family's relief work for the Rohingya's in Bangladesh, we were contacted by a couple whose 20 month old daughter, Labiba, had been diagnosed with Leukaemia two months prior. With no proper treatment facilities or cancer hospitals in the area, her condition had rapidly deteriorated. The family come from a very poor background and have barely any savings of their own, so we organised a medical visa for them to travel to Kolkata, India, to receive the treatment that Labiba needs.

    Labiba's family arrived in India on the 17th June 2018, and after their first consultation at the Tata Medical Centre the next day, Labiba was immediately admitted and estimated to need 6 cycles of Chemotherapy. 

    Doctor's believe that the initial cost of Labiba's treatment, along with the extensive testing that needs to be done, would be around 8 Lakh Rupees (around 10,000 USD). This does not include other expenses the family will need, such as accommodation for their time in India.

    We are humbled that we are able to help Labiba and her family through this difficult time, and we ask that you please donate any amount that you can towards the cost of her treatment, to help save this little girl's life.

      Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far... Unfortunately, the doctors have discovered through further tests that Labiba has Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (AMKL) which they have said is untreatable and have given her not much time left to live. She will continue her chemo for a short while longer in order to reduce her symptoms, before going back home to Bangladesh. We will send the raised money over to cover the treatment costs and avoid the debt for her poor parents. May God bless this family and ease all their suffering.
