“My father has always been the strongest person I know. Even when life threw challenges at him, he stood tall. But today, at just 52 years old, I see him fighting battles that no one should ever have to face.”
My father, Adesh, is currently being treated at Medanta–The Medicity, Gurugram. In January 2024, he was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and extra-pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB). It all started with painful symptoms, frequent urination, urinary tract infections, and even blood in his urine. What we thought were minor health issues turned out to be something far more serious.
Since then, his life has been a series of hospital visits, medicines, and procedures. He is on Anti-Tuberculosis Treatment (ATT) and has a DJ stent placed to help his kidneys for now. The doctors have told us that once the TB treatment is completed, the stent will need to be removed and surgery will have to be done to treat his kidney disease. Until then, he is visiting the hospital regularly on an OPD basis.
As his daughter, it breaks me to see him go through this. “The hardest thing,” he once said to me, “is not the pain, but watching your family worry about you.” And he is right. My father has always been our pillar of strength, but today, he needs us to hold him up.
We are a small family, my mother, my younger brother, and me. I am the only earning member. We have already spent most of our savings and even raised some funds from my workplace, but the cost of treatment has been overwhelming. The hospital bill feels heavy. Despite everything, I try to stay strong for my father and family, because I know dad is fighting with all his courage.
I believe that with the right treatment and surgery, dad can recover and live a healthy life again. But we cannot do it alone. That is why I am reaching out, with all the hope I have left, to ask for your support.
Your contribution will help my father complete his treatment and surgery. Together, we can give him a chance to live the life he deserves. Please Help!

"मेरे पिता हमेशा से सबसे मज़बूत इंसान रहे हैं जिन्हें मैं जानता हूँ। ज़िंदगी में जब भी उनके सामने चुनौतियाँ आईं, वे डटे रहे। लेकिन आज, सिर्फ़ 52 साल की उम्र में, मैं उन्हें ऐसी लड़ाइयाँ लड़ते हुए देखता हूँ जिनका सामना किसी को भी नहीं करना चाहिए।"
मेरे पिता, आदेश, वर्तमान में गुरुग्राम के मेदांता-द मेडिसिटी में इलाज करा रहे हैं। जनवरी 2024 में, उन्हें क्रोनिक किडनी डिज़ीज़ (CKD) और एक्स्ट्रा-पल्मोनरी ट्यूबरकुलोसिस (TB) होने का पता चला। यह सब दर्दनाक लक्षणों, बार-बार पेशाब आने, मूत्र मार्ग में संक्रमण और यहाँ तक कि पेशाब में खून आने से शुरू हुआ। हमने जो मामूली स्वास्थ्य समस्याएँ समझी थीं, वे कहीं ज़्यादा गंभीर निकलीं।
तब से, उनका जीवन अस्पताल के चक्करों, दवाओं और प्रक्रियाओं का एक सिलसिला बन गया है। वे एंटी-ट्यूबरकुलोसिस ट्रीटमेंट (ATT) पर हैं और फ़िलहाल उनके गुर्दे की मदद के लिए एक डीजे स्टेंट लगाया गया है। डॉक्टरों ने हमें बताया है कि टीबी का इलाज पूरा होने के बाद, स्टेंट को हटाना होगा और उनके गुर्दे की बीमारी के इलाज के लिए सर्जरी करनी होगी। तब तक वह नियमित रूप से ओपीडी के आधार पर अस्पताल आते रहेंगे।
नोट: आदेश के सफ़र से आपको जोड़ने में मदद करने के लिए, हमने उनके संघर्षों को दर्शाने के लिए AI-जनरेटेड या स्टॉक इमेज का इस्तेमाल किया है। इन तस्वीरों का उद्देश्य गंभीर रूप से बीमार मरीज़ों और उनके परिवारों द्वारा झेली जाने वाली शारीरिक और भावनात्मक चुनौतियों को दर्शाना है। हालाँकि ये आदेश की असली तस्वीरें नहीं हैं, लेकिन ये उनकी लड़ाई के पीछे के दर्द और पीड़ा की एक दृश्यात्मक याद दिलाती हैं। आपका समर्थन (दान और कहानी साझा करना) उनके लिए आशा की किरण बन सकता है।
