Help Prakash and Family
Donation protected
Dear friends,
As some of you know by now, my dear husband Prakash Murthy , who has been living in Longmont, CO for over 9 years, was diagnosed with Glioblastoma Multiforme, a grade 4 malignant Brain Tumor(most aggressive Brain Cancer) in November 2016. He has been fighting bravely since then. He had undergone 3 Brain surgeries , twice radiation and numerous chemotherapy .
Since September 2019 ,the tumor has progressed to a stage where medical science could not do anything further to help him , only option was Hospice care!! He has been confined to bed since last visit to hospital following multiple seizures in October 2019 . Now he barely speaks and recognizes anyone .
Prakash and I have been married for 8years, we have a 6yr old daughter. At the time Prakash received his dire diagnosis, I was in the process of working towards my USMLE . I have one more exam to clear before I would be eligible to apply and start the 3year long Residency Program , at the completion of which I would be certified to practice in the US and be able to support myself and my daughter going forward.
Prakash has been a software freelancer for quite a few years, but did not have Life insurance coverage at the time of diagnosis. The emotional toll on our family through this long and hard fight has been terrible enough ,and equally damaging has been the financial toll. My humble and sincere request to you all to render a helping hand through this terrible time we are in now financially.
Thank you.
