Latest Update


Dear Donors,

Dipankar continues to undergo dialysis three times a week while also receiving treatment for recurring pleural effusion, which has caused fluid to accumulate around his lungs. As he recovers after suffering a cardiac arrest a year ago, doctors are closely monitoring his condition so he can become fit enough to undergo a kidney transplant. Your contribution matters. Donate and share his story ahead.

Story


"Three years ago, I was told that both my kidneys were failing. Since then, my life has revolved around dialysis, hospital visits, and the hope that one day I will receive a kidney transplant." — Dipankar Ghosh.


My name is Dipankar Ghosh, and I am 53 years old. I live in Kolkata with my wife. What I thought would be a peaceful phase of life has turned into a constant battle for survival.


Three years ago, I was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and have been undergoing dialysis three times a week ever since. Doctors have told me that a kidney transplant is the only permanent solution.


A year ago, I suffered a cardiac arrest, and although doctors managed to save my life, my health has remained fragile. Recently, I developed pleural effusion, where fluid accumulated around my lungs and caused them to contract, making it difficult to breathe. This complication has returned after first occurring following my cardiac arrest.


Because of these medical complications, my doctors are waiting for my body to recover before performing the transplant. Meanwhile, I am trying to arrange the funds needed for this life-saving surgery.


For the past 30 months, I have been unable to work. My wife left everything behind to care for me full-time, leaving us with no source of income. We have already spent nearly ₹15 lakh on dialysis, hospitalizations, and treatments, exhausting all our savings.


Despite everything, I still dream of recovering, starting a small business, and rebuilding our lives.


Today, I humbly ask for your support. Your donation can help me reach the kidney transplant that could save my life.


Every contribution and every share can make a world of difference!


প্রিয় সহৃদয় মানুষ,


আমার নাম দীপঙ্কর ঘোষ। আমার বয়স ৫৩ বছর। গত তিন বছর ধরে আমি দীর্ঘস্থায়ী কিডনি রোগে (CKD) ভুগছি এবং সপ্তাহে তিন দিন ডায়ালিসিসের ওপর নির্ভর করে বেঁচে আছি। চিকিৎসকদের মতে, কিডনি প্রতিস্থাপনই আমার একমাত্র স্থায়ী সমাধান।

এক বছর আগে আমার কার্ডিয়াক অ্যারেস্ট হয়েছিল। সম্প্রতি আবার ফুসফুসে পানি জমে (Pleural Effusion) শ্বাসকষ্ট শুরু হয়েছে। এই জটিলতার কারণে চিকিৎসকরা আমার শরীর পুরোপুরি স্থিতিশীল হওয়ার অপেক্ষায় আছেন, যাতে নিরাপদে প্রতিস্থাপন করা যায়।

গত ৩০ মাস ধরে আমি কর্মহীন। আমার স্ত্রী আমার দেখাশোনার জন্য সবকিছু ছেড়ে দিয়েছেন। চিকিৎসায় ইতিমধ্যে প্রায় ₹১৫ লক্ষ খরচ হয়ে গেছে, আর আমাদের সমস্ত সঞ্চয় শেষ।

আপনাদের সামান্য সাহায্যই আমাকে জীবন বাঁচানোর এই প্রতিস্থাপনের আরও এক ধাপ কাছে নিয়ে যেতে পারে। অনুগ্রহ করে পাশে থাকুন।

Dipankar continues to undergo dialysis three times a week while also receiving treatment for recurring pleural effusion, which has caused fluid to accumulate around his lungs. As he recovers after suffering a cardiac arrest a year ago, doctors are closely monitoring his condition so he can become fit enough to undergo a kidney transplant. Your contribution matters.

#2 (19 Sep, 2025) - From Dipankar Ghosh

Dear Donors,

Dipankar is battling Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), and his current health is very critical. His kidneys can no longer function, and he now depends on regular dialysis sessions just to survive. Recently, his condition worsened further when he suffered a cardiac arrest and had to be put on a ventilator. Along with CKD, he is also struggling with heart problems, pneumonia, and weakness that has left him unable to walk properly.

Doctors have advised an urgent kidney transplant within a year as his only hope for survival. The cost of the transplant, heart care, and post-operative medications is in lakhs, which his family cannot afford after already spending everything on his treatment.

Your support can help Dipankar get this life-saving transplant and give him a second chance to live, walk again, and rebuild his dreams. Please donate and share his story.
