17-year-old Jethi Poonad is suffering from aplastic anemia. In this disease, blood is not produced in the body and the patient has to be given blood again and again. Jethi was treated at Barmer Government Hospital and then Jodhpur AIIMS for a month, but after his health did not improve and money ran out, his brother Kaluram brought him back home.
Now the doctors have told him that bone marrow transplant is the only option. The cost of this transplant is more than Rs 25 lakh. The family watching the death of the elder brother-in-law on the cot in the house has spread the bag many times in front of the people’s representatives, organizations and people. The News 18 team had appealed for help to the victim’s family. Expressing gratitude to the connexionblog team, Champa Devi, mother of Jethi Poonad, said that financial assistance of Rs 3 lakh 75 thousand has been received so far, but the treatment is still far away.
Mahant Premgiri Ji Maharaj of Nimbla Math has given cash assistance of Rs 2 lakh 51 thousand. At the same time, help has reached the victim’s family through 1 lakh 25 thousand phone pay. The only brother in Jethi’s family is Kaluram, who survives by working as a labourer. If you also want to help in the treatment of this girl child, then you can help on the phone number 93585 15442 of brother-in-law Kaluram Meghwal. Otherwise, help can also be sent to Kaluram’s son Gularam’s account number 11312433394 in Rajasthan Marudhara Gramin Bank branch Bishala. The IFS Code is RMGB0000257.
