Why this matters
Dear Friends, Family and Compassion Supporters,
We are reaching out to you for your urgent support. My 23 years old brother Gaurav has been through a life altering misfortune that has left us all shaken and heartbroken. In the fall of 2022, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Large B Cell Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, a high grade fast growing type of blood cancer. This resulted in an exponential decline in his health at an unimaginable rate, bringing his life to a complete halt. The disease has not just taken a toll on his health but has also shattered his dreams to build a career for himself after graduation.
Despite the hardships , he has bravely taken on endless chemotherapies, spinal lumber punctures, countless blood transfusions, painful radiations and a gruelling stem cell transplant with a smile on his face. He is a vibrant soul who brings joy to everyone’s life and has put up a commendable fight to bring his life back to track. He reached complete remission in April this year and was really excited about the possibility of a bright future.
Sadly, his happiness was short lived and his disease has relapsed the third time in span of 1 year. After global discussions, his treating Oncologist have said the only way to save his life is a CAR T cell therapy. He has been found eligible for a CAR T cell therapy at Sheeba Medical Centre in Israel and this will cost in excess of £100000. His treatment has to be started asap to stop the aggressive spread of his disease and to give him another chance.
He is a beacon of strength, positivity & resilience and at the same time gentle and kind natured. He deserves to be given every chance at a long and happy life.
Our Goal: £50000
We are rallying together to raise £50000(half of anticipated cost) to help him get the treatment started asap. The funds will largely go towards the cost of therapy and to support 4 weeks of hospitalisation.
How your contribution will help
Every contribution, no matter the size will make a significant impact on our ability to provide a timely treatment to Gaurav and take this last chance to save his life. Having already spent £60000 in his treatment in last 1 year, your generosity will ease the financial burden on the family.
Standing Together
Gaurav’s battle is far from over. At this point we don’t know where his fight will stop and how many therapies he will have to undergo to win this battle. With ask you to stand beside us as we come together as a community to lift up our brother. He is the youngest member of the family and everyone who knows him well understands that he has always been there to support others in need. Your kindness, compassion and generosity will have a lasting impact that goes far beyond financial assistance.
Thank you for being a source of strength and support. We will try to provide key updates here when possible. Please do feel free to add a note of support with your donation.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Nitish and all of Gaurav’s family and friends
