Hi everyone,
Hope all of you remember the case of Arevindh Sidhu (severe growth
hormone deficiency) that XSA had handled in the past. We received
generous contribution from most of you guys. We are happy to announce
that he completed his treatment After almost 5 years of treatment, he
has increased his weight from 18.5kgs to 52kgs & height from 118cms to
162cms. Attached is the mail we received from Arevindh's father
conveying their gratitude. Below is a brief background for those of
you who are not aware of Arevindh's case.
Arevindh was suffering from severe growth hormone deficiency. The
treatment was started 5 years back. There was a risk of his bones
getting degenerated if adequate treatment was not provided.That is
when they considered doing hormone therapy for Arevindh. Initially the
monthly expense for medicine was around 35k, which was steadily
increasing based on his development and increasing of dosage. They
were seeking help from several organizations and generous people for
meeting the necessary finance for medicines. XSA's role was to support
them financially whenever they ran short of funds, after collecting
the amount from XMEC.
