The doctor then explained that they need to perform another emergency surgery in which they would have to remove a piece of his skull to allow the brain to swell up freely without the risk of getting compressed inside his skull.
My name is Sunita Mendonca and my son, Samson Mendonca, 21 years old is suffering from Distal Brachial Artery Thrombosis a rare and devastating complication.
We belong to St. Joseph's Parish, Mira road, and reside at Thanushree palace, behind the church, many of you know us personally as well. My son Samson has always been a bright child, with a promising future, samson is studying Computer Science Engineering at St. Francis college
It all started on 15th October with a small blood clot on his right hand, we came to Bhakti Vedanta for the diagnosis of this blood clot, all of a sudden Samson collapsed at the pharmacy and suffered a paralysis attack on the left side of his body. After running a few tests, a CT scan revealed a blood clot in the right side of his brain.
After the surgery, a complication was faced wherein the brain began to swell up and this could lead to a haemorrhage. The doctor then explained that they need to perform another emergency surgery in which they would have to remove a piece of his skull to allow the brain to swell up freely without the risk of getting compressed inside his skull. Fortunately, the second surgery was performed right in time. Samson is now in the ICCU and is under critical observation. The piece of the skull that was removed is now in Jaslok Hospital, Tardeo, and will remain there for 3 months for preservation till doctors think that Samson is fit to undergo the surgery to put it back on.
Medical documents are attached on the website, The road ahead is long and treacherous. The doctors have instructed us that Samson will spend the next few weeks in the hospital and will need extensive care and physiotherapy which is essential to getting him back on his feet. Our present monetary situation isn’t in the best of conditions and we will need all the help possible to get through these tough times.
Right now the hospital has estimated our bill to be around Rs 12 lakhs. My husband Maxie Mendonca is a sound engineer, my sons are studying and I am a housewife. We have exhausted our Insurance and savings
