RM70,000 Donation Appeal For Kidney Transplant November 21, 2007
Posted by Health Mama in : Charity Cause , trackback
For 43-year-old Prebakaran Subramaniam, suffering from kidney failure, small tasks taken for granted are performed with difficulty.
He takes five minutes to walk up a flight of stairs, panting when he reaches the landing.
He has no choice but to cut conversation and walks short distances as he becomes breathless after 10 minutes.
Undergoing dialysis three to four times a week has also left him weak.
For a kidney transplant operation, Prebakaran requires RM70,000. His donation appeal was made yesterday at a press conference called by the MIC Youth wing’s Social and Welfare Bureau in Puchong.
“Dialysis 12 times a month doesn’t come cheap. I’ve finished all my savings last year and I have been dependent on my siblings,” said the ex-lorry driver.
Cheques, money orders and bank drafts can be made payable to the Prebakaran Fund and addressed to the MIC National Youth Social and Welfare Bureau, 12, Jalan PBP 5, Taman Industri, Pusat Bandar Puchong, 47100 Selangor.
Or a cheque can be made to Prebakaran A/L Subramaniam at his Alliance bank account 62083-0-02-003720-3.
For inquiries, contact P. Amutha at the Puchong MIC division at 03-58829360.
