WE CAN NOT HELP EVERYONE BUT EVERYONE CAN HELP SOMEONE
WE CAN NOT HELP EVERYONE BUT EVERYONE CAN HELP SOMEONE
I was diagnosed with leiomyosarcoma of uterus in 2015.
Despite a series of treatment of surgery,chemotherapy and radiation, the
disease relapsed in Feb, 2018. Today, the disease has spread to many organs .
However, I haven't lost hope as yet. I have always believed in God and his
miracles. Someday, I will be cured from this fatal disease. I have seen a lot
of suffering during the course of my
treatment. Every year 250,000 children
all over the world get diagnosed with cancer, out of which 90,000 are likely to
die. Most childhood cancers are treatable, In resource rich countries three out
of four children today survive. However,
in case of developing and emerging economies, children are often not diagnosed
or diagnosed too late and lack access to information and life- saving treatment
. Around 80% of children with cancer live in developing countries and more than
half will die. (Source: Media release January 2014, International Society of
Pediatric Oncologist and Childhood Cancer International).
In India, it is estimated that nearly 40,000 -50,000 new
childhood cancer cases occur every year. It is estimated that in India 70%
children suffering from cancer die due to lack of awareness, late detection and
diagnosis. Numerous other children die due to inadequate facilities, high cost
of treatment and the absence of supportive care.
In this regard, I have taken
a small initiative to work for supporting poor children suffering from
cancer in India. Today, I have an online store , viz., The Renaissance
Store. I sell merchandise and
home furnishing in this store and 20
percent of the profit from The Renaissance store is donated for the treatment
of poor children suffering from cancer. Since I am based in Jaipur and most of
my treatment takes place at Bhagwan Mahaveer Cancer Hospital and Research
Centre, I decided to donate funds for the cause of treatment of poor children
suffering from cancer through this hospital. The care and concern shown by the
doctors and other fellow staffs in this hospital appeals to me and that is why I decided to
collaborate with this hospital for the cause. In last 6 months The Renaissance
Store has donated 65,000/- for the cause.
You can also join hands with us and support the cause.
