The family of Janet Wanjiru is appealing for Sh2 million help for an urgent brain surgery of its 13-year-old son Clinton Munyiri in India.
According to various clinical analyses of the patient, he is suffering from Mesial Temporal Sclerosis, a condition doctors attribute to head trauma, oxygen starvation to the brain or an infection of the brain.
Wanjiru says his son`s problem began when he returned home complaining of excruciating pain in his head after he fell while playing at school.
She rushed him to the hospital where doctors scanned his head and established that his head had suffered from trauma due to a hard impact on his head.
She says her son, who has since stopped schooling, has been contending with fits of convulsions, poor appetite and loss of memory.
Wanjiru is now seeking help from wellsishers after the family exhausted all they had seeking medication for their son.
The surgery is scheduled to be conducted at Medanta, Medicity Gurgaon, Delhi in India this month.
Relatives, the church, friends, and neighbors have come to the family's rescue but they have been unable to raise the required figure.
Wanjiru, who is also awaiting her eighth colon surgery, is pleading with everyone to chip some cash to her family.
Donations may be channeled through M-pesa pay bill number 613106, account name Clinton Munyiri or Cooperative Bank pay bill number 400222 or account number 261395 Clinton Munyiri.
