My daughter’s life is at risk due to severe joint deformities!

My name is Raj Kumar, and I am the father of Sapna, a 24-year-old girl whose life has been a constant struggle since birth. Every day, I wake up to the heartbreaking reality of watching my daughter suffer from severe spasticity and joint deformities. I work as a daily laborer, earning just ₹250-₹300 a day, and my wife stays home to care for Sapna. Despite our best efforts, we have never been able to provide Sapna the life she deserves.

From the very beginning, I knew something was wrong. As a baby, Sapna couldn’t move like other children. Her legs were stiff, and she couldn’t even crawl or sit up. As she grew, her condition worsened. Her lower limbs became more rigid, and she developed severe contractures, causing her legs to bend and tighten painfully. It was hard to see her struggle so much, but even harder knowing we couldn’t afford the treatments that might have helped her.

We did what we could. We took Sapna to doctors, but every time we were told the same thing—her condition required specialized care, but the costs were far beyond what we could manage. I would return home feeling helpless, my heart aching as I saw my daughter’s pain and frustration. She couldn’t walk, couldn’t speak clearly, and had no way of living a normal life. She often asked me, "Papa, why can’t I walk like the other kids?" It was a question I couldn’t answer without breaking down.

Years passed, and Sapna’s condition remained the same, if not worse. She was unable to do anything for herself and needed help with even the smallest tasks. The pain in her legs was constant, and her body grew weaker. We couldn’t even afford the medications she needed. The frustration of watching her suffer every day without being able to do anything was unbearable.

Then, recently, I heard about a treatment that could potentially change her life: a surgery to release the contractures in her legs, tendon lengthening, and even stem cell therapy. The doctors say it could help Sapna regain some mobility, but the cost is in lakhs. I knew I couldn’t afford it. I work hard every day, but the amount is far beyond my reach.

Now, I am turning to you. My daughter deserves a chance to walk, to be free from the pain, and to live a better life. Please, I ask for your help in raising the funds for her treatment. I can’t do this alone, but with your support, I believe Sapna can finally have the life she’s always dreamed of.
