Help 3-Year-Old Yazhini Undergo Life-Saving Heart Surgery


Baby Yazhini, a 3-year-old girl from Ariyalur, Tamil Nadu, has been diagnosed with a serious heart condition known as Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) a hole in the wall between the upper chambers of the heart. Because of this defect, blood flows abnormally inside her heart, making it work harder than normal and putting her health at risk.


After medical evaluation at MGM Healthcare, Chennai, doctors confirmed that Yazhini has a large 11 mm ASD and have advised ASD Device Closure surgery to close the hole in her heart. Without timely treatment, this condition could lead to severe complications affecting her heart and lungs as she grows.


Yazhini’s father is a farmer and the only earning member of the family, making around ₹10,000 per month. Her mother is a housewife who stays home to take care of Yazhini and the family. With such a small income, the family is struggling to meet even their daily needs.


The estimated cost of Yazhini’s life-saving procedure is approximately ₹2.5 to ₹3 lakhs, which is far beyond what her family can afford. Despite their efforts, arranging this amount is impossible for them without external support.


At just three years old, Yazhini deserves a chance to live a healthy and happy life like any other child. Her parents are now seeking the kindness and support of generous donors to help their daughter receive the treatment she urgently needs.


Your contribution, no matter how small, can help save Yazhini’s life and give her the healthy future she deserves.
