"Dear Friends,
Pranav Dhakal is our wonderful friend and it is on his behalf we are
making this appeal. It is unfortunate that we could not introduce a
person so cheerful, optimistic and compassionate in a better
circumstance.
Throughout these many years of friendship he has endlessly won our
hearts with his witty "shayaris", empathetic spirit, and has
personally impressed me with his enduring optimism. His motivation
to help fellow Nepalese is unequaled. There are many of us whose
memories with Pranav began at the airport, where he volunteered to
pick up new Nepali students with that big smile on his face.
Recently, Pranav was admitted to Overland Park Hospital in Kansas
City to get treated for a rare infection. As of now, his condition
is very CRITICAL. The infection has spread throughout his body
including his heart, lungs, liver and kidneys. His brain has
suffered a condition called
"sinus thrombosis". Doctors say that it
is difficult to cure this condition when only a minimal dose of
antibiotics can be administered to him in order to prevent further
damage to his kidneys.
We felt helpless to see a person as enthusiastic and as motivated as
Pranav lying on the hospital bed fighting for his life. This is an
appeal on his behalf to pray for him and for his family during this
difficult time. This is also an appeal to every one of you to donate
whatever amount you can to help him cover the medical expenses but
more importantly to bring his family members here to care for him.
We thank you in advance for all your prayers and support.
You can send your prayers and notes to Pranav and his family by
writing to: help_pranav@yahoo.com
On behalf of Pranav Dhakal,
~ Friends of Pranav"
