Help My Father, Chakrapani Venkata Ramana Charya, Fight Advanced Lung Cancer

My name is Sahithi Chandana Chakrapani, and I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Business Analytics and Data Science at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma. I am raising funds for my beloved father, Chakrapani Venkata Ramana Charya, who is battling advanced lung cancer that has spread to his brain and other parts of his body.

In the last week of December 2025, our lives changed forever when we received the devastating diagnosis. What initially seemed like minor health issues quickly turned into a nightmare. The cancer is aggressive and has now led to severe complications, including brain seizures, leaving my father in critical condition and requiring intensive care in the ICU in Hyderabad.

Watching my father fight for every breath is the most painful experience of my life. He has always been our family’s strength, guiding and supporting us through every challenge. Today, he lies in a hospital bed, fighting a battle no one should ever have to face.

Since his diagnosis, we have done everything possible to ensure he receives the best medical care. So far, we have already spent approximately $30,000 on hospitalizations, ICU care, treatments, medications, and emergency procedures. However, his treatment is ongoing, and we urgently require $30,000 to continue life-saving care, manage complications, and give him a fighting chance.

The financial burden has become overwhelming, but as his daughter, I cannot give up on him. He has spent his entire life caring for and protecting our family. Now, it is my turn to stand by him and fight for his life.

I humbly appeal to kind-hearted people to support us during this incredibly difficult time. Every contribution, no matter how small, will directly go toward his ICU care, cancer treatment, and critical medical needs. Even sharing this campaign can help us reach compassionate individuals who can make a life-saving difference.

All funds will be used solely for my father’s cancer treatment in India.

My father is not just a patient—he is a loving parent, a guiding light, and the heart of our family. Your generosity, prayers, and support can give him hope and strength in this painful battle.

Please help my father, Chakrapani Venkata Ramana Charya, continue his fight against cancer.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for standing with us in this fight for his life.
