Lily Dsouza needs help saving her 15-year-old son Melbon

Dear Angels, I am Lilly Dsouza a single mother raising my 15-year-old student of class nine, Adarsh High school from Tatcode Parish Mangalore, and fighting every day to keep him alive.  Melbon started getting fever, vomiting, and diarrhoea when he was just 2 months old. In 2008, he developed significant renal pain. The hospital found he had a kidney failure and prescribed dialysis, but the only way to recover is to acquire a new kidney.

We need so much money to save my son that I'm stuck. His dialysis cost us nearly Rs.30,000 per month. My savings for Melbon’s treatment are gone. I was a helper and did everything, but nothing worked.

We don’t have any insurance as we couldn’t afford one and started the treatment at KMC Mangalore, a government hospital. The doctors say Melban can receive a kidney transplant, but the cost is roughly Rs. 8-10 lakhs and the monthly expenses are around Rs. 20,000 for six months. The hospital's estimate letter does not cover medicines or other costs.

I am a single mom with limited means who cannot afford his additional treatment and medication.

Melbon is everything to me, I humbly request you all to be generous towards my child and help him with his medical treatment.

Please share the fundraiser with your family and friends and help me reach the cost of the treatment.
