NaN Backers"The doctor told us there is only a 50–50 chance of our baby’s survival. He asked us to be mentally prepared. I was shattered hearing this. I never thought the happiest day of my life would also be the scariest.” – Rajeshwari, mother
On 19th August, Rajeshwari and Bhupesh welcomed their baby boy into the world. But instead of holding him in their arms, they saw him taken straight to the NICU. Born prematurely, his organs are underdeveloped, and he cannot breathe on his own. Even after a month of NICU care, he just weighs a little over 1000 grams. He needs to stay in the NICU for at least one more month to survive.
A Pregnancy Full Of Struggles, Ending In A Heartbreaking Emergency
At just 6 months of pregnancy, Rajeshwari started experiencing heavy bleeding. She was hospitalised for 5 days and discharged with complete bed rest. For a while, things seemed under control, but soon the bleeding returned, followed by unbearable delivery pains.
"This time the doctors told us that the baby would come no matter what… and that we had to be ready for emergency NICU care. I prayed so hard to keep him safe inside me a little longer, but they said it wasn’t possible anymore.” – Rajeshwari, mother
The baby was delivered too soon and rushed to the NICU, where he is kept in a glass box, fragile and fighting for every breath.
I have only seen my son once, and our family hasn’t even seen him yet
"I have only seen my son once. My family hasn’t even seen him yet… he is still inside that glass box. Rajeshwari is allowed to see him every day, but even she can’t hold him. She stands there, looking at him from behind the glass, her hands trembling to touch him, her heart breaking that our baby is so close yet so far. Every day I pray for just one chance to bring him home safe.” – Bhupesh, father
Their Only Dream Is To Take Him Home
Bhupesh, 29, works in medical distribution and earns Rs.18,000/- a month. Rajeshwari, 28, is a homemaker. They live in a small village, 26 km away from the hospital. To afford the initial treatment, they mortgaged their only piece of land, but it isn’t enough.
The couple is currently staying in a small rented room near the hospital to be close to their baby.
Every day, they wake up with the fear that they might lose him if they cannot continue his treatment. All they wish for is to hold him, see him smile, and take him back to their village alive.
Your support can help this family continue their baby’s NICU treatment and finally take him home.
