Latest Update


Dear Donors,

Hiren Rozario’s treatment is currently ongoing. Immunotherapy was started on 15th September, followed by oral chemotherapy the next day.

Unfortunately, Hiren developed a high fever due to a urinary infection, and he had to be admitted to the hospital again.

He has now been hospitalized for over a week and is continuing to receive medical care and treatment under the doctors’ supervision.

We humbly request you to come forward and support Hiren’s treatment.

Your kindness and support can give Hiren and his family strength and hope during this difficult time.

Thank you for your prayers, generosity, and support. 



Story


My father, Hiren Rozario, is 69, and I have watched him live with ankylosing spondylitis for many years. But since May 2026, our lives have changed completely. He has now been diagnosed with metastatic renal cell carcinoma, an advanced kidney cancer that has spread to his brain, spine and lymph nodes. 

He has already undergone radiation to his brain and spine, but the cancer and his condition have left him paralysed from the waist down. He has very little sensation in his lower body and cannot properly feel when he needs to pass urine or stool. He needs help with even his basic daily activities and requires a nurse or caregiver at home. On top of this, he has suffered an acute kidney injury and a urinary infection/uro-sepsis, making this an even more difficult time for him.


His doctors have started Nivolumab immunotherapy, and his oral chemotherapy is now beginning. He will need to continue his cancer treatment along with regular blood tests, scans, consultations and supportive care.


Please save my father’s life!

As his son, it is painful to see my father, who has already spent years dealing with one painful condition, now face cancer and paralysis as well. We are not asking for anything extraordinary for him. We just want him to regain some strength, live with less pain, become as independent as his condition allows, and have peaceful time with our family. We are doing everything we can to keep his treatment going, but the growing medical expenses and the need for a caregiver have become difficult for our family to manage.


The cost of his life-saving treatment and medications has reached lakhs. My family and I have spent all our financial resources to save my father’s life, but it's not enough; we need more funds to continue the life-saving treatment.


Be a miracle for my father; your donation will play a vital role in saving my father’s life. So please extend your helping hand and save his life. Donate now!

मेरे पिता, हिरेन रोज़ारियो, 69 साल के हैं और मैंने उन्हें कई सालों से एंकिलोज़िंग स्पॉन्डिलाइटिस के साथ जीते हुए देखा है। लेकिन मई 2026 से हमारी ज़िंदगी पूरी तरह बदल गई है। उन्हें अब मेटास्टैटिक रीनल सेल कार्सिनोमा हुआ है, जो किडनी का एक गंभीर कैंसर है और उनके दिमाग, रीढ़ की हड्डी और लिम्फ नोड्स तक फैल गया है।

उनके दिमाग और रीढ़ की हड्डी की रेडिएशन हो चुकी है, लेकिन कैंसर और उनकी हालत की वजह से कमर के नीचे का हिस्सा पैरालाइज़्ड (लकवाग्रस्त) हो गया है। उनके शरीर के निचले हिस्से में बहुत कम सेंसेशन (संवेदना) है और उन्हें ठीक से पता नहीं चलता कि कब पेशाब या मल त्याग करना है। उन्हें रोज़मर्रा के कामों के लिए भी मदद की ज़रूरत होती है और घर पर एक नर्स या केयरगिवर की आवश्यकता है। इसके अलावा, उन्हें एक्यूट किडनी इंजरी और यूरिनरी इन्फेक्शन/यूरो-सेप्सिस भी हुआ है, जिससे यह समय उनके लिए और भी मुश्किल हो गया है।

डॉक्टरों ने निवोलुमैब इम्यूनोथेरेपी शुरू कर दी है और अब उनकी ओरल कीमोथेरेपी भी शुरू हो रही है। उन्हें कैंसर के इलाज के साथ-साथ रेगुलर ब्लड टेस्ट, स्कैन, कंसल्टेशन और सपोर्टिव केयर की ज़रूरत होगी।


कृपया मेरे पिता की जान बचाएं!

एक बेटे के तौर पर, यह देखना बहुत दर्दनाक है कि मेरे पिता, जो पहले से ही एक दर्दनाक बीमारी से जूझ रहे थे, अब कैंसर और पैरालिसिस का भी सामना कर रहे हैं। हम उनके लिए कोई असाधारण चीज़ नहीं मांग रहे हैं। हम बस इतना चाहते हैं कि उनमें थोड़ी ताकत वापस आए, वे कम दर्द के साथ जी सकें, अपनी हालत के हिसाब से जितना हो सके आत्मनिर्भर बन सकें और हमारे परिवार के साथ शांति से समय बिता सकें। हम उनका इलाज जारी रखने के लिए हर संभव कोशिश कर रहे हैं, लेकिन बढ़ते मेडिकल खर्च और केयरगिवर की ज़रूरत को संभालना हमारे परिवार के लिए मुश्किल हो गया है।


उनकी जान बचाने वाले इलाज और दवाओं का खर्च लाखों में पहुँच गया है। मेरे परिवार और मैंने मेरे पिता की जान बचाने के लिए अपनी सारी जमा-पूँजी लगा दी है, लेकिन यह काफ़ी नहीं है; जान बचाने वाला इलाज जारी रखने के लिए हमें और फंड की ज़रूरत है।


मेरे पिता के लिए एक चमत्कार बनें; आपका डोनेशन मेरे पिता की जान बचाने में अहम भूमिका निभाएगा। इसलिए कृपया मदद का हाथ बढ़ाएं और उनकी जान बचाएं। अभी डोनेट करें!
