Dear Sir/ Madam,

Requesting financial assistance for the correctional surgeries

I am an ambitious and independent, 24 year old young woman, yet physically handicapped. I am writing this

to seek financial assistant for my correctional surgery.

In 1997, I contracted Leukemia and I received treatments from Cancer Hospital Sri Lanka, for about two

years. In the midst of treatments for Leukemia I suffered paralysis of both legs and became wheelchair

dependent.

In or around the year of 2001, I was diagnosed with right hip dislocation and in 2005 yet again with a spinal

disorder known as kyphoscoliosis. In spite of these major physical impairments, I learnt to cope up with my

day-to-day activities. However, spending years with numerous physical hardships gradually deteriorated my

health condition and I started experiencing chronic pain and discomfort including breathing difficulties and

trouble maintaining sitting and sleeping positions which has led to a life threatening condition. As a result, I

resorted to local medical practitioners but found no favorable option.

Due to the progression of this condition, I consulted Dr. Sajan Hedge, an Indian doctor attached to Apollo

Hospital India. After closely examining my situation he decided that the abnormal curvature of my spine

and dislocation of my hip could be corrected by way of performing two surgeries. And he replied along with

the estimated cost amounting to Indian Rupees 1,700,000/- [Approximately LKR 4,500,000/-].

This projected cost exceeds way beyond our financial capabilities. As we dont have a fixed abode, we are

living in a renting house. My father deserted us a long time back and he hardly maintains any connection

with us. My youngest sister is still schooling and my mother has to incur expenses for her studies. We do not

have other means of income apart from my mothers monthly pension allowance.

I was destined to a hapless fate but life has taught me to move on. I wish to live my life to the fullest

improving on my abilities thus surpassing my disabilities. With every passing day I feel more ambitious as I

yearn to live a normal life I once used to live.

I herewith attach my medical reports and photographs indicating the sickness as proof for my critical

condition. I would be grateful if you could lend me financial assistance in my humble endeavor to pursue my

normal life. Even the smallest donation towards brightening my future will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Yours faithfully,

Yashodha Jayarathne
