Help The Son Of A Coconut Seller Get An Urgent Surgery To Remove A Tumor In His Stomach

“My son has been in pain for 7 years now. He was only 12 when the doctors found the tumour. He was getting better when he took medication and had a surgery. But suddenly, the tumor has increased in size. He has his entire life ahead of him. I worry about what the future holds for him, or if he will even have one at all,” says Vanitha, Thejeshwar’s mother.

Thejeshwar has been frequently admitted to hospitals ever since the doctors found a large tumor in his stomach. He underwent a surgery to remove a part of the tumor, and has been on medication for the same ever since then. He has been undergoing tests and scans for the past 7 years now. It was during one of these scans in 2016 that the doctors discovered the tumor had become large and was a threat to his life. Thejeshwar needs an urgent surgery to remove the tumor and get better again.
