Bhavani’s family from Yadgiri moved to Bangalore for her treatment. Since she was seven months old, Bhavani received regular blood transfusions at our Daycare in Indira Gandhi Institute Of Child Health.
When doctors found a suitable HLA match in her family, her father hesitated, fearing for his young son who would be the donor.
Over the next two years at the Sankalp daycare, the family saw many children successfully treated through bone marrow transplants. Seeing their recovery helped her father overcome his fear and agree to the procedure.
The transplant was completed successfully, and Bhavani has now been discharged in good health. She hopes to return to her village and live a peaceful life.
Her story stands as a reminder that awareness, trust and timely treatment can turn fear into hope and healing.
