Akash & Aaki Medical Expenses

Donation protected

Hi Everyone,

I’ve recently found out that an old friend, Akash Singh and his lovely wife Aaki, are going through some really difficult times.  

Anyone who knows Akash, knows that he is not one to ask for help...but this situation is incredibly serious.  I hope we can all come together and help Aaki get the medical treatment that she needs.


The following are Akash’s words:



Your Small Help Can Change My World

Namaste! 

My name is Akash.  I am a musician, guitarist, composer, and performer who had been earning by performing live music with just an acoustic guitar.  But due to Covid-19 all this has changed.

About a month before this pandemic, my wife Aaki began having health problems.  We did not know how severe the situation was until serious complications began interfering with her ability to move her jaw, eat, and talk.  

She has been diagnosed with Acute Temporomandibular Joint Disease and requires surgery.  She also has a severe gum infection which has seriously damaged her teeth and bones and has now spread to other areas, resulting in increasing pain in her ears, neck, head, and entire face. 

I have been helplessly watching her health rapidly decline because we have had to put off treatment due to lack of funds.

Things weren't always like this.  Prior to Covid-19 we were both working and living a happy, simple life.  Our savings were depleted within the first few months of this pandemic...quickly spent on food and rent.  Without money to pay rent, we are essentially homeless...shifting from place to place with our luggage.  Though we have secured a temporary place to live, the reality remains that we have no income to support ourselves with in the near future.

But we're determined and have set our minds to surviving this situation.  Right now, we need your love and support.  Donations made to this cause will go towards Aaki's medical treatments and help to cover essential costs of living, like food and rent, as we navigate this difficult time. 

I don't know how to put all of these desperate feelings into words, I know that everyone has been affected by this pandemic and I feel very uncomfortable writing this.  But I have no other hope besides this fundraiser.  The last six months have been a frustrating journey for us.  My wife is very depressed...she has been through a lot.  I just want to see her healthy and smiling again.  

I believe that we rise by lifting others in need.  No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.  If you are in a position to help us, please do.  If not, please keep us in your prayers.  

Sometimes your only available transportation is a LEAP OF FAITH.  Any contributions big or small, will have an impact and will certainly be met with immense GRATITUDE.

I wish I could be of some help to you in the future.  Thank you for reading this. 

Sending you love and light!

~Akash
