Hi All !
It's been a while i've written and i'm glad... :)
I usually take it as a good sign when its been long i've written on this blog! It just means that there isn't anything in particular to write about Rishis health which is worrisome.
Yes, i do agree I also write to thank each one of you and also to let you all on a general update on our little warrior; but i'd prefer to go the 'no news is good news" way :)
Rishi is doing good .. by the good lords grace; recovering at home. He goes to the hospital once a week for a general check up and blood counts etc.
His last counts were a tad lower than what they've been but that the docs said not to pay too much heed to as ups and downs will keep happening for some time to come .. we got to become friends with them :)
We would like to thank a few very generous donors who have contributed much more than anyone of us could ever expect or imagine.
Though like i always say , any amount , even if its one rupee , makes the most difference...
Thank you to all of you and God bless you all , always.
It's only coz of you all that Rishi has made it to where he is today .. Please do Keep the prayers and faith on ...
In Love, Gratitude & Prayers, Always,
Tina

Update _23rd March 2011
Hi Folks!
As most of you know , Rishi is done with his dose of the 4 injections he needed and is now recuperating at home .
He is doing well. Had a regular check up today and by Gods love and kindness , all his counts are under control .
Its his birthday on Friday ; we cannot celebrate it as we normally would for a child his age ; for fear of infection etc .. so we will have a quiet celebration.
Please do remember him in your prayers and pray he sees many many many more birthdays :)
Thank you to each one of you !
In Love , Gratitude and Prayer , Always,
Tina

Nearly there..
Update_4th March 2011_Friday
Hello People,
Rishi has had his 3rd injection today. He is home recuperating. Doc's say he is improving.
His counts have gone a little low. Nothing drastic to really worry about , but definitely worth praying for.
The hospital has been kind enough to give us 2 injections free of cost on the 2 we buy and have also been very kind to wait for us to pay them as and when we get donations.
There have been a few kind hearted souls who have made donations and we shall remain ever greatful to them.
Please do continue to spread the word and ofcourse , needless to say , keep the faith and prayers on! :)
Thank you each one of you for every contribution made , in the form of prayers , donations or anything else.
Will post soon after he is done with his 4th injection and all goes well.
In Love, Gratitude and Prayer, Always,
Tina.

The battle half won.....The last mile remains
Update 17th February 2011_Thursday
Hi Folks!
There's not -so- good news !
Rishi has come down with GVHD- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graft-versus-host_disease
and is in the hospital undergoing treatment.
This is real testing time now. The doctor says he needs 4 injections which will help him come out of this and once and for all get all the infections etc out of his system.
The injection is called - Mabthera 500mg injection , batch b6144b01 Dec 12.
Each injection costs , Rs.80,000/- , Yes you read right , Rs.80,000/- .
The doctor has managed to get us 2 on 2 free , but even the cost of 2 is coming upto 1,60,000/- which we are trying to collect.
This is an appeal to anyone and everyone who would like to contribute and help us to save our little warriors life.
We have fought upto here , we obviously are not going to give up now .
He is already in hospital and undergoing treatment while we wait to hear from kind souls like you all who are willing to contribute in saving this little boys life who dreams to grow up and contribute as much as he can , to the world which saved his precious little life.
Besides this , please do keep him and his family in your prayers and hope such trials and tribulations leave their home as soon as possible.
P.S - Please do spread the word and find below a note from his doctor ...
P.Also See - Incase you do want to help , please get in touch with me at tina.malkani@gmail.com and I will try to respond as soon as I read it.

Update _January 25th 2011
Hello everyone!
Our warrior is winning :) !
His platelet count had gone up to 1.67 lakhs .. He is out of danger .. His hemoglobin is a little low at 9 ... but that the doctors say is nothing to worry about.
He has a little bit of a reaction in his mouth due to medication , which normally happens after such treatment . The doctors have told us to keep a watch on that bit .. and has given mild medication for the same. It should be fine soon , but he has to go back to see the doc next Monday again for the same.
The medication and treatment still continues for a long long time and hence the expense is still very much there.
Thank you each one of you , without whose prayers, our little warrior would not have been where he is today .
Keep the faith! Keep the prayers on!
In Love, Gratitude and Prayers,Always,
Tina

Happy Brand New Year to each one of you!
Apologies on not having written for so long.
Our Lil warrior is doing good, though a week and a half ago he was down with a very slight temperature for which he was admitted in the hospital for 3 days , just to be extra careful so that he does not catch any other infections. Was put on to medication and observation; is back home now, smiling :)
The latest reports look good. His platelet count has been on a gradual rise which the docs say is a great sign. He is recovering very well but has to visit the hospital at least 2ce a week.
There do come spurts of discomfort every now and then but then i guess from what he has gone through earlier , these don't seem that troublesome to him as they do to me when i see him or hear of it.
We definitely need to raise more funds as what we had in reserve is slowly drying up and we definitely will need more to make sure he wins this battle entirely..
We are trying to look for a baalvikas teacher for him and his sister , if anyone in Pune does know of one who is ready to go to their home and take lessons, please do let us know.
I would like to thank our sai brother once again for making it possible to get the medication Rishi needed so urgently . Thank you.
Thank you to all of you , without whom , fighting this battle and being on the way to winning it would not have been possible.
Please do keep Rishi and his family in your prayers..
