This is the heartbreaking story of a family whose life has been turned upside down by illness and financial hardship.
My father-in-law has been suffering from serious health complications, including kidney-related problems. In 2022, he suffered a stroke and was taken to a hospital in Guwahati for treatment. Although surgery was not required and he was treated with medication, the stroke left him paralysed. Since then, he has been unable to walk and has remained bedridden at home, completely dependent on others for his daily needs.
The tragedy did not end there. His son, my brother-in-law, also suffered a stroke. In 2023, he was admitted to a private hospital in Guwahati, where he underwent surgery. Unfortunately, he too was left paralysed, affecting the left side of his body. He is also bedridden and requires continuous medical care.
Today, both father and son are lying helplessly in bed, fighting their own battles against illness. Their treatment, medicines and regular physiotherapy require a considerable amount of money.
To save their loved ones, the family has already sacrificed everything they possessed. They have sold their own land, cows, goats, gold ornaments and almost every valuable belonging they had. Whatever little they owned has been exhausted in the hope of bringing the two patients back to a better life.
But today, they have nothing left.
No land, no livestock, no ornaments, no savings and absolutely no source of income. Since both the father and son are suffering from paralysis and are unable to work, the family has been left with no means to support their treatment or even manage their basic needs.
Every passing day brings new worries, helplessness and uncertainty. They desperately want to continue the treatment, medicines and physiotherapy, but their financial condition has reached a point where even arranging the basic medical expenses has become an enormous struggle.
It is truly heartbreaking to see a father and son suffering together, while their family struggles helplessly to arrange the money needed for their treatment.
At this difficult moment, they desperately need our compassion, support and helping hands.
We sincerely appeal to kind-hearted individuals, social organisations, NGOs and everyone who believes in humanity to come forward and extend whatever financial assistance they can.
Even a small contribution can bring hope to this helpless family and help them continue their fight for a better tomorrow.
Let us not allow poverty to become another obstacle in their fight for life.
Your little support can make a big difference.
Thank you for your kindness, compassion and humanity.
