Hi everyone,

I'm reaching out with a heartfelt plea for assistance during this challenging time for my husband and our family. My husband, a remarkable father and husband, has always prioritized providing for his family, but unforeseen health challenges have significantly altered our lives.

Born with a premature kidney and bladder reflux, he was unaware of his condition until both kidneys failed, leading to a diagnosis of stage 5 kidney failure in February 2014. This sudden development forced him to cease working as a qualified automotive technician and embark on a challenging journey of medical treatments and financial strain.

Since then, life has been an uphill battle, marked by numerous setbacks. In 2022, he was further diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome, which not only impacted him physically but also took a toll on his emotional well-being. Every day presents new struggles as we navigate the complexities of managing his health while grappling with the mounting medical expenses.

We are in urgent need of financial assistance to cover his monthly medical aid expenses, which include:

• Medical aid fees
• Monthly medication
• Weekly blood tests
• Dialysis

Unfortunately, our current financial situation is dire, as we have until February 16 to pay R7200 to prevent the termination of his medical aid membership, which would mean waiting a year for it to be renewed.

My husband, despite being medically boarded, is determined to work and provide for our family. However, medical aid doesn't cover all our medical expenses, and the financial strain is overwhelming.

Your support in raising these funds would ensure he receives the vital treatment he needs, granting us the precious gift of his continued presence and support for our family.

Thank you for considering our plea, and any assistance you can provide would be immensely appreciated.

Warm regards,

Nikki Ramdas
