“My name is Nazarana, and I am the mother of a baby girl who is just 9-Day-Old. She has barely opened her eyes to this world, yet she is already fighting for her life.

Instead of holding her close and feeding her in the quiet comfort of our home, I watch her lie in a hospital bed at Six Sigma Hospital, Nashik, connected to machines. Doctors have told us that she has a PDA, a hole in her tiny heart that is causing blood to flow the wrong way. Because of this, her little heart is working harder than it should, even to take a single breath.

The doctors have advised an urgent PDA surgical closure to save her life. The total cost of her surgery and treatment is ₹5,00,000, an amount we simply cannot arrange on our own. Every moment feels like a prayer, every heartbeat feels uncertain.

As a mother, it breaks me to see my newborn go through pain before she has even had the chance to be held freely in my arms. I dream of the day I can take her home, watch her grow, hear her laugh, and see her live a life without suffering.

With folded hands and a heart full of fear and hope, I humbly request your help.
Please help us save our baby girl.
Your kindness can give her the chance to live, breathe, and grow, a chance every child deserves.”

With folded hands and a heart full of hope,
Nazarana, mother of a 9-day-old baby
