Ahil is a shy kid and is quite dependant on his mother. His parents want him to be educated in his mother tongue, but he is not too exposed to basic academic concepts. He enjoys watching cartoons and is trying to make some friends. The family has been staying at the Access Life center from June, 2021.
Fighting Cancer
Ahil’s initial symptoms were fever and stomach pain along with swelling in the stomach. The family visited a doctor and admitted the child in the Hospital in Nanded for 8 days. But, the problem could not be diagnosed and the treatment plan suggested was very expensive. The doctor then suggested the family try Wadia Hospital in Mumbai.
Challenges
The family already has financial troubles due to low income. The family faces a lot of financial difficulties. The villagers helped the family with some amount and they were able to manage to hitch a ride on someone’s car to Mumbai. After reaching Mumbai they struggled for shelter. Even though they have relatives in mumbai, none of them were in a position to put them up. The family put up at the hospital for the first few days before learning about Access Life. Ahil has two more sisters who are currently staying with Grandparents and misses their parents.
