My Dear Friends

First of all, my personal thanks to all of you for the kind support to these poor children.

Since we require only around Rs.64000 to complete this cause, we request you to kindly transfer the amount as per details mentioned in the "requested" column.

We will pay the amount directly to the hospital against their bills only after completing the operation, under intimation to you.

Kindly send an email confirmation once money is transferred. We have already requested the hospital to go ahead with the same.

Shall keep you posted the developments from time to time.

GOD Bless All

With love
Gopal

Sir, 

I have spoke with ahalya hospital staff and they confirmed that the amount required is Rs.  63990. While sending the details printed in ahalya hospital's letter pad,  they attached same document twice and they didnt send akshaya's document. I told this to them and then yesterday morning two seperate sheets were send.  

 

Regarding change in total amount,  they have said that the staff who prepared the documents yesteday was not bother about the concessions to our school. So they are saying that the requirement prepared in excel format is correct. 

 

Kindly help our kids for their treatment. 

 

Thanking you,

Dear Sir,

 

I spoke to Mr Biju today.  One child was advised rest for some days by hospital due to fever  (who was listed for procedure upon MFG approval). Again Mr Biju will approach the hospital.  Hopefully, he would be furnishing all details to us in this week along with cost/medical condition /recommendation  from hospital. This will be from hospital, in hospital papers.

 

For your interim information please.
