Documents and hospital letters
4-Feb-2014: As patient has been visiting American citizen hospital, Anil kumar, TMAD Volunteer, have asked the patient to visit MNJ cancer institute in Hyderabad for second opinion. The patient and their family came on Feb 4th to Hyderabad. Sundeep Savaram, TMAD volunteer, has joined the patient in the hospital in the morning and spoke to both junior and senior doctors. Doctors mentioned that the patient is in final stages of cancer and treatment option is not viable. Hence they suggested joining him in hospice. This to ensure that patient and their family is given moral strength to face the situation.
Sundeep was with patient till evening giving them all the required support and completely took care of the patient and their apprehension. Kudos to Sundeep for spending the whole day in hospital by helping the family understand the situation of the patient and providing the available options. Also, thanks to Geethika, TMAD Volunteer for her time in coordinating with Sundeep and helping him out in handling this case.
Unfortunately, TMAD couldn't do much except giving them moral support. We pray god to give the parents and the boy much needed strength to face the situation.
