Jayden

 

OCA in conversation with: Mrs.Valerie (Jayden’s Mother)

 

Case Background: Jayden was detected with Leukaemia at the age of 3 years. After initial chemotherapy, he recovered only to see a relapse in 2017 (Age 7 years). By then Valerie had already used all of family’s life savings for his treatment. That is when she was confronted with a Cost of 35 lacs for his bone marrow transplant with only 40% survival chances.

 

When confronted with the cost of treatment

“When I heard that, it seemed as if I had already lost my child. We were numb for few days. Nothing was coming to mind. I had to save my son even if it costed me my house. We spent sleepless nights for over a month.”

 

When Valerie found a sponsor in OCA

“My first thought was that my child is going to get cured. There was so much Joy that I could just run to the hospital to pay the money. There is God & God’s Angels. This was all I ever wanted in life. Life will never be the same again”.
