Jayaprakash, just 32, was walking back home from work when a speeding car hit him and fled. 

The impact was so severe that his brain suffered critical damage. He was rushed to the hospital, where doctors had to perform an emergency brain surgery, even removing a part of his skull to relieve the pressure.

For 12 straight days, he lay unresponsive in the ICU, fighting a silent battle between life and death.

Today, Jayaprakash has opened his eyes but is still in a critical condition. Whenever he tries to speak, the pain in his head stops him. Slowly, he has stopped trying at all.

“He stepped out that day just like any other…promising to be back soon. But the man who returned to us…couldn’t even recognize us. My brother is alive, but every day it feels like we are losing him piece by piece.” - Devi, sister

At home, two tiny daughters wait for him but he has forgotten their names

The father who should have been holding his newborn and playing with his toddler…now lies in a hospital bed, unable to even understand their presence.

“When I stand in front of him, he looks at me like I’m a stranger. He doesn’t call me by my name anymore… he doesn’t even know I’m his wife. Whenever I mention our daughters, it pains me that he can’t recall their names even.” - Sneka, wife

One is just 2 years old, still learning to call out ‘Papa’. The other is only 4 months old, too young to even know the face of her father.

Without surgery, this accident could rob these young daughters of their father forever

Doctors say Jayaprakash needs another critical brain surgery to restore his cognitive functions and give him a chance at a normal life.

He was the only earning member as a daily wage labourer. His family has already spent lakhs trying to save him. But now, they need Rs.14.5 lakhs more - an amount far beyond their reach.

With him bedridden, the family has no income, no savings and no way forward.
