Abdul Khader

MRDNo:681428
Age /Sex : 45 Years/Male
Department : Urology
Date of Admission/Discharge : 21/08/2008---31/08/2008


Dear Amma,

My name is Abdul Khader. I got admitted in this hospital ten days back. I underwent treatment for my kidney at another hospital for couple of days, but the doctors were unable to diagnose the actual problem. After coming here, the doctors diagnosed the problem correctly and suggested a surgery. The surgery expenses were too much for me to handle since I come from a very poor financial background. With Amma’s grace, a huge percent of money was given to me as treatment help. So my surgery was successfully performed. I will never forget this great help given to me by Amma. In the same way, the excellent treatment of all the staff in this hospital was extremely good. I learnt an important lesson from here that love and compassion was much more effective to any patient than any medication. Once again I thank Amma and all the staff in this hospital for all the help.

I have three children, three daughters and a son. Two of them are married off. My third daughter works in a shop. My son is not going for any job and he stopped his studies too. Myself and my family offer our gratitude to Amma for all the help given to me. My daughter who is employed takes care of the expenses of the entire house. At first we contacted patient services and someone came to our house for enquiry. After that we were provided with treatment help. I thank Amma for providing Rs. 33273 as treatment help.

Regards,
Abdul Khader

Sara Sudheer

MRD No : 698023
Age/Sex : 5 Years/ Female
Department : Neurosurgery
Date of Admission/Discharge : 06/08/2008---30/08/2008


To my loving Amma,

My name is Sudheer and I hail from a place called Kothala in Kottayam district. My family consists of myself, my wife, my mother, and my children Sara and Neethu. I am a coolie worker. My mother is 85 years old and is asthmatic.

My 5-year-old daughter Sara was diagnosed with brain tumor and was taken to a couple of nearby hospitals. We took her to a hospital in Kottayam and the doctor there performed a scan and other tests on her. After that we took her to Trivandrum and did some tests and scan. A huge amount of money was spent for all these. Being a coolie worker, I went through a lot of financial crisis and was on a huge debt. That is when one of the doctors at Trivandrum told us to come to this hospital and get the surgery done. Thus I came here with my daughter and consulted the neurologist. He said that the surgery would cost a lot of money. So I told him about my poor financial condition. So he asked me to contact patient services. So I contacted patient services and they provided me with the details as to whom to contact at the ashram in Changanacherry. Following that, the swamiji from there came to our house for enquiry and gave us a letter to give to patient services. So I gave the letter and I was given the date for my daughter’s admission. I went to Amritapuri and got Amma’s blessings and after that my daughter was admitted. My daughter’s surgery was successful and now she is recovering well. We offer our pranams and a million thanks to our compassionate Amma for providing Rs. 92,426 as treatment help. All the doctors and other staff in this hospital were very loving and helpful. I thank each and everyone for all their help. Once again I offer my pranams to Amma. I give consent to publish my daughter’s photograph along with this letter in Amma’s publication.

Regards,

AUM AMRITHESHWARYAE NAMHA

To beloved Amma

I am from a place named Chemmalamattom at Kottayam district. First of all I extend thousands and thousands of thanks to our loving Amma. My name is Sudhamani K.S. Now am 39 years old. I have been ill since 13 years. All my asset was spent for my treatment. My family includes my mother, brother, sister and brother–in–law. I cannot do any work due to my illness. My father expired 15-years back. Brother is also sick. Mother is very old. My sister and her husband are coolie workers. They are the earning members of our family. I am under treatment at Ammas hospital for past few years and this is the first time am getting admitted here. But due to our poor financial state initially we thought of not getting admitted. It was then we came to know about the patient service unit in Ammas hospital. Thus we told all our difficulties and got admitted. With Ammas grace now I feel better. Yet doctors had suggested for a surgery at my elbow. In this surgery too, I expect Ammas help. Ammas services has to be given to all who are in need like us. These deeds are very consoling for people like us. I am extremely happy for Ammas help. I express thousands of thanks to Amma.

Regards
Sudhamani

K.A.Sheeja

MRD No : 695451
Age/ Sex : 40 Years / Female
Department : Oncology
Date of Admision / Discharge : 27/08/2008—30/08/2008


Dearest Amma who has all the virtues but is humble, compassionate and comforting.

My family consists of myself, my wife Sheeja and my mother and we hail from a place called Cherayi, Pallippuram panchayat in Ernakulam district. For the past two years or more, my mother K.N.Baby who is 64 years old, has been undergoing treatment for breast cancer, diabetes and heart problems. Since January 2008, she underwent treatment in couple of hospitals for about 4 ½ months and while on treatment she passed away on June 19th. All this time for saving our mother’s life we had already pledged all the gold we had and taken some personal loans and now we have a huge amount of Rs. 2,50,000 as debt. We went to a lot of hospitals for my mother’s treatment and as a result, I lost my job because I had to stay off work many times. I have been hunting for a new job for the past 4-5 months now. In July my wife Sheeja found a lump in her right breast and after biopsy she was diagnosed with cancer. The oncologists at AIMS immediately performed other tests and they told that she had to undergo surgery immediately. They told that the surgery would cost a huge amount of Rs. 25,000. We could not afford such a huge amount of money. We then remembered about Amma’s charity activities and so went to Amritapuri and met Amma and told her about our problem. Amma consoled us and told us that She would take care of all our medical expenses. We were given a letter and we took it to the patient services department and as a result the surgery was successfully performed. We offer our gratitude to Amma for understanding our financial problem and providing Rs. 21,756 for my wife’s surgery. We will forever pray for Amma’s welfare and we offer our pranams at Amma’s holy feet. We thank all the doctors, nurses, other staff at the oncology department and everyone from patient services for all the help. I give consent to publish my wife’s photograph along with this letter in Amma’s publication.

Regards,
E.K.Sajeev.

Jaya Gopi

MRD No : 688674
Age/ Sex : 35 Years/Female
Department : Neurology
Date of Admission/Discharge : 20.06.2008—25.08.2008


My Dearest AMMA,

My name is Gopi and I am offering this letter to Amma. My wife’s name is Jaya and she is 34 years old. We have three children. Our eldest child Jibi is studying in 10th standard and second child Jincy in 6th standard. I am a coolie worker. I have not been able to go for work for the past two months because there is nobody to take care of Jaya. Jaya was seven months pregnant. Following vomiting she experienced some change in her speech. Then the doctor said that she had to undergo an MRI. So we went to a local hospital and MRI was taken and she was admitted there for three days. There was no improvement at all. So I decided to bring her to Amma’s hospital. Now it has been two months and two days since we came to this hospital. There is a lot of relief in her symptoms after coming here. We contacted patient services and someone from there came to enquiry to our house. All we have is ten cents of land and a house. I had to spend around Rs. 2 lakhs in this hospital. Amma provided Rs. 173100/- as treatment help for Jaya’s treatment. All the doctors and staff in this hospital were very helpful. Now I am going to take Jaya to a hospital in Kozhikode. The doctors here told me that she will be relieved with the current medications. Myself and my family are truly indebted to Amma. We can never forget Amma. Jaya is doing much better now. I will definitely go with Jaya and our children to meet Amma. We offer a million pranams to Amma

Regards,
Gopi
