HELP Save the lives of my Granny & Aunt from COVID
We lost our beloved uncle (kancha mama) Vijay Rajkarnikar, who was only 45, to COVID on 6th August 2020. To say that it has been devastating and hard for the family is an understatement. When he was pronounced dead, the army placed his body in a bag and took it for cremation; we couldn't even carry out any last rites. He is survived by his mother (our grandmother) Kedar Nani; his sister (our aunt) Mamata, his wife (our aunt) Ameeta, and his young daughters (our cousins) Lizala and Avisha.
Unfortunately, our grandmother, Kedar Nani, and aunt, Mamata, tested positive 3 weeks ago and are in ICU in critical condition, hooked up to ventilators and fighting hard for their lives. Our aunt's lungs have been severely damaged by the virus and doctors tell us that her road to recovery is going to be long and hard. Our grandmother, who has been a chronic heart patient, is also struggling to stay alive. They are both on 80% oxygen at all times. While we have been trying our best to cover all medical bills, it has been difficult on all of us since the expenses are adding up each day. Till date, we have spent over USD 35,000 and we are not even halfway through their recovery.
We live hour- to- hour, waiting for some signs of improvement, and it has taken a mental, emotional and financial toll on our family. We are reaching out to you in hopes that you can help us in donations to cover hospital costs. We will keep you informed and updated on the health condition of our grandmother and aunt and also share with you where the money you donated is going. Please know that no amount is small for us. Anything you donate is valuable for us in this hour.
