Mission Teena : Successfully recovered from Leukaemia


In August 2014, Teena, a little girl was suffering from Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia-L2 variant. As per doctors the treatment will cost about Rs.10 Lakhs to overcome the disease based on their experience at Basavatarakam Indo American Hospital (Hyderabad).

 Family Background : Teena's father is an employee in a medical factory in Gujarat and he has spent money above his level and he could not further afford the cost of the treatment. Her mother is a house wife. Teena also has a younger sister.
Thanks to Raghav (Volunteer) for the kind support

 Abhaya Foundation took up this case but it was highly impossible to pool such a huge amount. Important thing here is she is in curable state and can come out of danger. Raghav an employee of ADP Hyderabad connected Teena with the Abhaya foundation and is supporting her.

 We met Dr. Rajagopal of same hospital and explained him about the case of baby Teena. We explored the possibilities of getting the attention of general public with the support of media houses. Also sent detailed appeal to President, PM, CM's of AP, GR seeking their support for this girl. At first, Rs.40000/- was pooled. Raghav visited the girl in hospital. For CM relief fund, he was asked to submit required documents in Lake view guest house to Mr.Rama Lingiah.

 Srikanth Reddy(USA) along with his friends and relatives donated some amount.
Dec 2014 :  Teena has undergone major chemotherapy stage4. She successfully completed 3 stages. As per reports there are no cancer cells in her body. 

 Biopsy reports are showing negative and she is recovering in a great pace.
Mar 2015 : Teena completed her treatment at NTR Cancer hospital and is  free from cancer and headed back to Gujarat.
Apr 2015 : Teena had to visit the hospital in Hyderabad for monthly check ups since her platelet count went down. Teena’s family is provided with accommodation  in Abhaya Home and transportation facilities whenever they visit for the checkup to Hyderabad.

 With persistent effort of doctors and continuous support from Abhaya, the treatment giving good result. She is active now in all activities and also in studies. She is studying in third standard.

abhaya Hunt The Winter 2020

  The 2020 population count was a stellar accumulation of unimaginable numbers. It outlined the total population of the country sweeping 1.3 Billion in numbers. Given the gradual and imminent increase in the population over years we can approximate the numbers to have touched the ceiling limit of 1.4 million  – given the 50 births per minute record rate.      As obvious as it sounds, the census was not only about recording the total population. It counted the total males, females, poor, rich, healthy, sick, young, old, homeless … ah, the homeless. Let’s pause and have a look at what the report has to say about it.    It is defined in the report that the homeless are those who do not live in houses, but rather stay on pavements, roadsides, railway platforms, staircases, temples, streets, in pipes, or other open spaces. There are 1.8 million homeless people in India consisting of single men, women, mothers, the elderly, and the disabled. Let’s put ...

Facet

Since how many days are we seeing people around us who are financially low but has immense talent. Since how many days are we seeing people around us who get deprived of oppurtunities because of their status in the society. Since how many days are we thinking that "Hope I get a chance to help such people"...."Hope I can do something to change the society I am living in". There are some people who take the lead to help others. There are some who wish they could but cannot find the correct way to do it. And there are others who have apprehensions about helping others, escpecially when money is involved. "What if the money I give doesnt reach the affected"..."What if my money gets wasted by the organisation". Believe me, I have journeyed through all the three cases.
