Hello Everyone,
My name is Tharun Kumar, and I am pleading for your help to save my precious Daughter, Kushi Duddi. At just 1.5 years old, Kushi has been diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA Type 2) — a rare and cruel genetic disorder that weakens the muscles needed for even the simplest movements, such as sitting, crawling, and eventually breathing. Every day, I watch my child struggle, and every day my heart breaks a little more.
The only treatment that can give Kushi a real chance at life is Zolgensma, a one-time gene therapy often called the most expensive drug in the world. It has the power to stop the progression of this devastating disease and allow my daughter to live a healthy, happy life. But the cost is overwhelming — ₹9 crore (₹9,00,00,000) — far beyond anything we can manage on our own.
As a father, I want nothing more than to see my daughter grow up strong and healthy. We have already drained our savings, borrowed from friends and relatives, and reached out to every possible source for help. But this amount is simply too big for our family to raise without the kindness and generosity of people like you.
Every moment is critical. SMA is a progressive disease, and with each passing day, Kushi’s muscles weaken further. The sooner he receives Zolgensma, the better her chances of recovery and living a normal life. Delaying this treatment could mean losing the opportunity forever.
I humbly ask for your support. Every contribution, no matter the size, takes us one step closer to saving Kushi’s life. If you are unable to donate, you can still help powerfully by sharing this fundraiser with your family, friends, and social networks. Spreading the word could connect us with the help we so desperately need.
From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your generosity, compassion, and prayers. With your support, we can give Kushi the greatest gift of all — the gift of life and a future filled with possibilities.
The goal amount of the campaign may be higher than the attached estimates to address and aid the post-hospitalization expenses/contingencies including but not limited to prolonged medication, diagnostics, rehabilitation therapies, and follow-up doctor visits/consultations which vary from disease to disease.
