Genesis Foundation: Kids in Need - Inshika

Inshika, who under went an open heart surgery.

1) Inshika is a 4-and-half-year-old girl who was referred to us by a friend who knows about the Foundation. She is currently admitted at Max Heart Institute, Saket. She will be going for open heart surgery today. Inshika’s father is a driver earning Rs.3,500/- per month. Her mother suffers from Type-2 Diabetes. With this meager salary daily needs are hardly met and cost of surgery of Rs.1,10,000/- is way beyond their means. Genesis Foundation is providing the financial support for her. A one time surgery will ensure Inshika leads a normal healthy life. Inshika is the only child for the couple. She has had a successful surgery and is back home.

2) Aditya is a 6-year-old boy who has a congenital heart disease needing open heart surgery. The child was taken to AIIM’S in Sep ‘09 and was advised surgery. The family is from Varanasi and the father works in a shop and earns Rs.3,750/- per month. The family has just moved from Bihar to Varanasi and is still to settle down fully. . Genesis Foundation has contributed Rs.55,000/- towards the cost of surgery which has been successful.

3) Durgesh Jha is 2 and half years old boy. Durgesh needs open heart surgery (VSD closure) as early as possible. Cost of surgery is Rs.1,30,000/- at Escorts Heart Institute. Durgesh’s father is a helper in a dairy shop and earns Rs.3,000/- per month. Durgesh is the only child, born after many years of marriage. The family is heart broken and have so far been able to collect only Rs.30,000/- for the surgery. This case was referred to Genesis Foundation, and an amount of Rs.1, 00,000/-  was contributed towards his surgery. Durgesh has underwent surgey in Feb 2010 and is now on the way to recovery.

4) Prince is 1 and half years old and needs to undergo Heart surgery at Max Hospital, Saket. The cost of surgery is Rs. 1,50,000/-. His father works under a sub contractor at IIT, Delhi and earns Rs.4,500/- per month. They live in a rented accommodation, with the rent being Rs.1000/- a month. The cost of surgery is beyond their means. The father was running from pillar to post trying to get funds, when he came to know about Genesis Foundation from some one in the hospital. They then got in touch with all of Prince’s medical papers. The parents were happy and were finally able to smile when they found out that Genesis Foundation has taken up the case. He had surgeryin Feb .

5) Falak is a 2-year-old girl who is the youngest of 6 children. She has congenital heart disease. She also suffers from Down’s syndrome. The child was taken to AIIM’S and needs to undergo open Heart Surgery. The cost of surgery is Rs.55,000/-. Falak’s father is a tailor who earns Rs.3000/- per month. Having a large family and taking care of a special child in his meager income is very difficult. A friend of the foundation came to know of this family in need and got in touch with us. Genesis Foundation has deposited the money in AIIMS CT Patient’s account. She is now awaiting date of surgery.
