Description
Case No. 1723: A newborn baby boy, who is only one month old, is in a critical situation, and we urgently appeal for donations to cover the life-saving surgical cost of repairing his diaphragmatic hernia.
Baby Thang Thawn Pau was born with respiratory difficulties, resulting in a bluish coloration all over his body. If the condition worsens, it can lead to circulatory failure due to pulmonary hypertension and underdeveloped lungs, ultimately endangering his life. His father, who works at a bakery, does not have the financial means to afford the RM20,000.00 surgical fee. We earnestly request that everyone help the baby with the surgical fee.
The baby’s life is at risk, and it is crucial to perform the operation as soon as possible to save his life. Seeing the child’s suffering and danger, the parents have been devoid of any joy since his birth. They have been constantly worried and burdened, with no moment of peace.
Baby Thang Thawn Pau cannot breathe independently and relies on an oxygen machine. After thorough examinations, doctors discovered that he suffers from a rare congenital condition called congenital diaphragmatic hernia. This occurs when the diaphragm does not fully develop during embryonic stages, allowing abdominal organs to slide into the chest cavity and compress the lungs, leading to poor lung development. The hospital’s clinical diagnosis necessitates immediate surgery to repair the diaphragmatic hernia; otherwise, the baby’s life will be at serious risk.
Unfortunately, the parents of Baby Thang Thawn Pau cannot afford the surgical expenses. His father works as a bakery employee, and his mother is currently unemployed as she needs to care for the baby at home. They also have two older siblings who are attending school. The father has been working day and night to support the family’s livelihood, but now, due to the surgical costs for their newborn son, he is overwhelmed and helpless. They can only turn to Da Ai and hope to get assistance from others in covering the baby’s surgical expenses.
With the authorization of Baby Thang Thawn Pau’s parents, we have initiated a crowdfunding campaign to raise RM20,000.00 for the surgical fees. We sincerely appeal to kind-hearted individuals to come forward and help, so that Baby Thang Thawn Pau can overcome this danger and pain and grow up healthy and strong as soon as possible.
We also request that everyone help spread this message by reaching out to more compassionate individuals who can extend their assistance. Thank you.
