I'm Vikash Prakash, husband, father, USAF veteran, and friend.

Just before Christmas in 2024, Ranjeeta Singh, my friend of 33 years from Fiji, who I had not seen for 25 years, surprised me with a visit here in Seattle.

Little did we know, that 2 weeks before her birthday, that I had to rush her to the ER. Now she is going through chemotherapy for multiple myeloma.

I'm seeking to raise funds to help pay for her chemo, tests, travel to appointments, her cost of living here in the USA, clothing, food, and medications.

She taught autistic children in Fiji, accomplished mother who's children are also in the nursing field. She is unable to leave the US due to her needing medical care here as Fiji does not have the support for many cancer patients.

I have been taking time off work using up my own sick leave to make sure she can get to her appointments.

I can't do it alone while providing for my family and helping Ranjeeta also.
