A Daughter's Plea for Her Mother's Fight Against Cancer

Diagnosis: Malignant Ascites, Peripheral Carcinoma

My name is Sumi Bakhati, and I am reaching out to you through a friend because I am thousands of miles away and feel utterly helpless. My beloved mother, Nirmala, who is 62 years old, is fighting a renewed and terrifying battle with malignant ascites and peripheral carcinoma.

A year and a half ago, when she was first diagnosed, I spent all my savings to give her a fighting chance. I am currently living in Japan, struggling to manage my own family's expenses, but my heart remains in Nepal with my mother. There, she is the sole caregiver for my disabled brother, who was physically challenged after an accident five years ago, and his 13-year-old son. She is the lifeline for our family, and I am now watching her fight for her own life while shouldering the weight of theirs.

The devastating news recently came that the cancer has spread to her bone marrow. She needs more intensive and costly treatment, but I have no more savings, and the financial burden is impossible to bear alone. I am being helpless, unable to be by her side or provide the support she so desperately needs.

We've uploaded her medical reports for full transparency, which show the severity of her condition and the urgent need for treatment. We're seeking funds to cover her medical expenses, including chemotherapy, medications, and hospital costs.

My mother is a warrior, caring for others even while her own life hangs in the balance. I am pleading with all of you to help us. Your kindness can give her the chance she deserves to fight this—not just for herself, but for my brother and nephew who depend on her for everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for any support you can offer.
