3 Babies Lost, Harni is Hira’s Last Hope. Don’t Let Her Go Too.

“I’ve held three babies in my arms and buried each of them. I can’t lose Harni too. She’s all I have left.” – Hira, Harni’s mother.

Hira, a 25-year-old mother who has already experienced more pain than most people, sits in a small room of a hospital in Raipur where silence is more powerful than words. Her 3-month-old daughter, Harni, lies near her. Too weak to cry, exhausted to move, and too young to fully understand the battle her small body is fighting. Harni is not only a sick child. She's a miracle in waiting.

Harni, who was born with a liver ailment that causes her to vomit blood and fills her body with fluid, fights with each breath. The child's health is serious and requires an immediate liver transplant, which costs ₹25 lakhs. Hira, a labourer earning only ₹200 per day and relying on government food for survival, finds it difficult to overcome this struggle alone.

Hira's story is one of quiet, unimaginable endurance. She married at 15 by her family, was abandoned by her husband, and was forced to fend for herself with no family help. She has already buried three of her children, all sons, who died of liver failure. One died at six months, another at eleven months, and the third at four years. "We couldn't find a donor in time," she adds, her voice breaking under the weight of grief that words cannot describe.
