A Mother Of Two Appealing For Your Assistance To Go For Treatment In India.
A family in Thika, Kiambu County, is appealing to
well-wishers to help them raise sh. 7 million to send their daughter to India
for specialised treatment.
Early this year, Gladys Kamande, a mother of two, underwent
an operation to remove fibroids, an operation that was quite successful but later
developed secondary complications that led her to be admitted in Kenyatta National
Hospital, suffering from a pulmonary ailment. She has now lost her vision and
urgently needs some intensive care treatment in India due to chest pains and
difficulty in breathing.
With the help of friends and well-wishers, she was able raise
the sh. 650,000 bill at the hospital to secure her release in April this year. She
is currently in a lifesaving machine and under home care after they were
released from Kenyatta National Hospital in April. The family spends about sh. 20,000
monthly on medication, something that has exhausted all their resources.
Gladys has been a businesslady in Mwiki, Nairobi but for
last one year has not been able to fully manage her work due to the illness. Her
husband left her when the burden of her ailment and the hospital bill became
too much, leaving her to fate.
When the disease started taking a toll on her, she moved to
her parents’ home in Starehe, Estate Thika where is under the care of her aging
mother.
Her to kids are both in secondary school and it has been a
tall order to raise their school fees at her current condition.
The family is now appealing to well-wishers to help them
raise the Sh. 7million needed to cater for her treatment in India. They have organised
a charity walk on the 18th Nov 2016 that will start @ 10 am at the
Moi Gardens (Mukiriti) opposite Thika Main Prisons towards Makongeni via U-Shop
and back to Thika Town.
To assist her, you can send your contributions to PAYBILL No. 829490.
For further details you can contact Mwangi Kamande (brother)
on 0727655014 or her mother via 0727178555.
