Help Murali to Fight Life Threatening Neurological Illness

Donation protected

Dear Friends and Kind Supporters,

I NuthanSai Battini reaching out with an urgent appeal to help my dear friend, Murali Sai Penaganti, an Industrial Engineering masters student from Wichita state University who is currently hospitalized at Wesley Medical Center Main, battling a severe and life-threatening neurological condition—new onset refractory status Epilepticus and super refractory status epilepticus, Auto immune enccephalitis, Coccidioidomycosis Fungi and Meningitis Virus. His condition has required intubating (Ventilator) for several days (March 13 2025 to Till Date), and his prognosis remains critical if the seizures do not subside.

Murali is an incredible person—kind, hardworking, and full of life. Unfortunately, his deteriorating health has left him unable to support himself, and his parents, who are in India, are desperately hoping to be by his side. However, financial constraints make it difficult for them to travel to the U.S. on an emergency visa.

Why We Need Your Help:
•⁠ ⁠Medical Expenses: Murali's treatment costs are overwhelming, and we are struggling to cover his hospital bills.
•⁠ ⁠Emergency Travel for His Parents: His parents have already exhausted their savings repaying an education loan for Murali. We need urgent funds to cover their visa, travel, and accommodation expenses so they can be with him in his time of need.
•⁠ ⁠Support for Recovery: Any additional funds will help Murali get the best possible care and assist with post-hospitalization recovery and rehabilitation.

How You Can Help:
Your generous contribution can make a world of difference. Every dollar counts—whether it helps pay for medical treatments, travel costs, or simply gives Murali and his family the emotional strength to fight through this battle.

If you are unable to donate, please share this campaign with your friends, family, and community. Spreading the word is just as valuable.

Medical Expenses ($250,000) – Covers ICU stay, ventilator support, neurological treatments, medications, MRI/CT scans, EEG monitoring, and other hospital-related bills.

Post-Hospitalization & Rehabilitation ($15,000) – Supports basic physical therapy, neurological rehabilitation, follow-up medical care, and necessary medications for recovery.

Let’s come together to give Murali the fighting chance he deserves. Thank you for your kindness, prayers, and support.

With gratitude,
His Friends and Family
