Dear family, friends and kind strangers:
I have just learned a few days ago that my 2nd cousin, Mary Deena Johnstoms, is suffering from dual kidney failure and requires an immediate kidney transplant. My cousins and I are looking to help her and her young family in any way we can.
Mary Deena is 24 years old, and married to Jonstoms Deldil Kollamparampil John, and together they have a 10 month old son. While in her 5th month of pregnancy with their son, she learned that one of her kidneys had failed. Due to the risk of the complication to her and her baby boy, the doctors performed a C-section at 7 months. By the grace of God, the baby is doing well.
Unfortunately for the family, Mary Deena's condition has deteriorated since then, leading to failure of both kidneys. She is currently undergoing dialysis twice a week at Lisie Hospital in Ernakulam . The doctors have advised that she needs a kidney transplant immediately. Mary Deena is fighting the good fight and staying strong, with faith that God will allow her to be there to help raise her baby boy. We are all praying for her to have a successfull recovery.
As you can imagine, interim dialysis, the ultimate transplant and ongoing support are quite costly. The doctors have estimated that the minimum needed to do the transplant is 10 Lakhs Rupees, which translates to around $15,000 USD. That is a significant amount of money back home, and unfortunately, the family does not have the financial means (money, health insurance, etc.) to come anywhere close to paying for her transplant, let alone the other basic needs of taking care of the household at this time.
First off, we are looking for you prayers for Mary Deena, Johnstoms and their son. For those of you that are willing and able to help financially, any amount would be sincerely appreciated by our family. I am setting a target of $15,000 to pay for her transplant and any ongoing expenses associated with the recovery. Any amount, no matter how small, can go a long way to helping for this cause! As the situation is urgent, we need to try and collect whatever we can to help pay for the surgery over the next 2-3 weeks.
I plan to disburse any collected funds directly to the Mary Deena Treatment Fund (set up by the Karthedom St. George Church, Vypin ) at the Union Bank of India . The fund is in Account # 3432022010023949 at the Malipuram branch (IFSC Code UBIN534323). The responsible parties in India for the fund are Fr. Antony Kopadussery and Zonal Head Sanjay Sharma MLA. Above is an image of the charity request sent out by the church in India on October 1, 2016.
I never like to impose on others to help with a personal family matter, knowing that everyone has their own struggles and responsibilities. However, the amount needed is just too great for our family to be able to support her on our own. Any help you can provide for my cousin would mean so much to us, and more importantly to her husband and infant son.
Please feel free to reach out to me on Facebook if you have any questions or concerns about this request.
Thanks and God Bless!
