Event: IWC of Bangalore South to the Rescue
IWC of Bangalore South (D319, IW India)

Sindhu and Niranjan’s joy knew no bounds when they realised Sindhu was expecting. The D-day arrived and they were blessed with a baby boy. Moments of joy filled the family and the baby was named Ananth.

However, little Ananth slowly started showing symptoms of difficulty to breath, often gasping for breath. The worried parents started visiting the doctors frequently. Then, 40 days after birth, the doctors revealed that the baby is suffering from “ Psuedomonas Infection.” The treatment procedure was quite expensive.

Niranjan, a cab driver by profession, and Sindhu, a school teacher, tried to arrange funds running from pillar to post, by selling her jewellery, mortgaging their home, and borrowing from relatives and friends, but the treatment burdened them financially. Then, a good Samaritan suggested they approach any service organisation which can help them.

IWC of Bangalore South, which is known for helping the underprivileged and needy paediatric patients, was informed about little Ananth’s serious condition.
The Club President and Members rushed to the hospital and contributed:
– A Oxymed five-ltr portable concentrator
– A 10-ltr aluminium oxygen cylinder
– A flow meter
This equipment was truly very essential and reduced the medical bills incurred by the parents.

With the true spirit of genuine service, the President and members of IWC of Bangalore South brought great relief to the family, helping to bring a new lease of life for little Ananth.
