Yamuna has been a patient of Rainbow Children's Hospital since September 30, 2006. This girl is a victim of Malignant Immune Hemolytic Anemia — a rare blood disorder that occurs to one in 2.5 million. Initially, the doctors treated her with IV immunoglobulins and Methylprednisoloa. However, when her condition did not improve for five days, the doctors had no option but to recommend IV Riteauxmob — which acts against B-Lymphocytes.

       IV Riteauxmob is a very expensive medicine that needs to be imported. Yamuna needs to be treated with this medicine for approximately another 5-6 weeks to recover. She has also been effected with fungal osteomylitis of maxilla and needs a long term remission induction therapy. However, her family, which is extremely poor, is no condition to meet the cost of the treatment, estimated at Rs. 7,45,000/- (Seven lakhs forty five thousand rupees). Please see the attached hospital estimate.

       The family is running out of resources and desperately requires your financial support to save Yamuna’s life. Please donate generously.
