Papa aapko kabhi mujhpar gussa nahi aaya ke aisa baar baar mujhe Bombay leke aana padta hai ? Yamuna was diagnosed with #CML when she was 4. The 9th grader today is an avid reader & full of a sparkling kind of energy . We’ve seen her year after year coming for follow up to Tata. 
Her father has been so diligent never missing an appointment No matter what it took Leave of absence from his job included After all these years he says she posed this question to him - perhaps understanding only now completely what it means to manage her treatment & keep her
healthy . Papa, don’t you ever get upset because you have to bring me to Bombay again and again like this ?
Never ever have I been angry or upset with her and I never will be. I will do everything to make sure she studies hard and makes her life .

Lakshmibai & her husband Reshmaji left their village in Parbani Distirct last night to take an overnight train to Bombay & made their way straight to Tata Memorial Hospital so that they would not be late for her appointment with her Medical Oncologist

They came to our office after the long OPD procedure at the hospital tired thirsty & hungry. It has been a tough few months for them back in the village where Reshmaji tills his small plot of land. The drought marriage expenses of their daughter & fees for the education of one
their two sons ( the other helps his father in the farm) has meant he has had to borrow money from the Sahukar , the money lender , in order to arrange funds for travel and tests and other sundry expenses the periodic visit to Bombay for his wife's check up means .
