Dear Nepalese people around the world,

My cousin brother, who is only 27 years old, is fighting for his life with end stage chronic kidney failure in Nepal. Doctors after looking at his kidney biopsy report has declared that the only option left at this point is for the kidney transplant. Dai's primary physician Dr. Sudha Khakurel from Bir hospital has referred to the doctor in India who has told that it would cost at least 700,000 indian rupees for the transplant. There is no way his family can afford that much of money for his treatment. Also, no one in his family members could be the matching donor for the kidney. Dai is now against the idea of transplant because he thinks he doesn't want some extra years of life at the cost of financial burden to his family all their life.

Thus, I have set up a web-page www.helpraj.com where we can donate whatever amount we can towards his kidney transplant. I humbly request all of you to let's join the hands together to give him that hope which he seems to have lost.

Together we can !
