For eight-year-old Parmila from Jodhpur, Rajasthan, childhood was never filled with carefree laughter or endless play. While children her age ran, studied, and dreamed about the future, Parmila spent most of her days struggling to breathe.
Born with a complex congenital heart disease, every small activity left her exhausted. Climbing a few steps, playing with friends, or even walking for long distances became difficult because her heart could not pump oxygen-rich blood properly. As the years passed, her condition became more severe, and so did her parents’ worries.
Her father, a daily wage labourer, worked tirelessly every day just to provide food for the family. But the cost of Parmila’s life-saving heart surgery was far beyond what they could ever afford. Watching their daughter suffer while being unable to arrange treatment was the hardest battle they had ever faced.
When hope seemed to be slipping away, Parmila’s family reached out to Jan Sanjeevni Trust.
After carefully reviewing her medical condition, the Trust stepped forward to support her treatment journey. With the generosity of compassionate donors, Parmila was finally able to undergo the much-needed cardiac surgery that doctors had been recommending for years.
For her parents, every prayer, every contribution, and every helping hand became a source of strength. They no longer felt alone in their fight. Hundreds of kind hearts came together to give their daughter the chance she deserved—a chance to live without constant fear.
Today, we are overjoyed to share that Parmila’s heart surgery has been successfully completed. She has also been discharged from the hospital, and doctors are satisfied with her post-operative recovery.
For the first time in years, Parmila and her family can look toward the future with hope instead of fear. The little girl who once struggled with every breath has now taken a courageous step toward a healthier life.
Her parents are deeply grateful to everyone who stood beside them during their darkest days. They know that this new beginning became possible because strangers chose kindness and gave their daughter a second chance at life.
Parmila’s journey reminds us that when people come together with compassion, they don’t just support a treatment—they change a child’s future forever.
