Tags : Help our chennaimoms member - SumithraSree
Hi Cmoms,
I hope you remember our chennaimoms member sumithrasree. She underwent a surgery recently and has to go for the next surgery soon. Please find her email to me below and if you would like to help her, please PM me with how much you would be able to contribute. I shall co-ordinate and collect the amount and give it to her. You are welcome to call and check on her.
Here goes her email.......
I am a Sumithra, aged 32. I am having two kids. At present I live in my parents place who are still working for their living. They are living in a rented house in mylapore. My husband was working in Qatar for 8 months from 2008 oct till May 2009. He came back and joined with Sweet chariot at Ispahani centre. Do to some financial problems inside that concern, they did not pay the salary properly. Even then he patiently waited for two more months till Dec 2009. Suddenly on 8th Dec 2009, he had severe pain and was admitted at Mehta hospital and operated for Kidney stones. This surgery costed us Rs.40000/-. He was under rest for 10 days. In that time I had pain the reflex area and the gall bladder area. On investigation we found two big calculi of each measuring 1.5 cm. On the advice by the specialists I got admitted at Kumaran Hospital, P.H.Road, Chennai- Dr. Shivakumar and Dr. Ravindran kumaran on 27th Dec and was operated on 28th Dec 2009 for calculous cholcystitis / Merizz’s syndrome. The findings were abnormal with a gall bladder of 15 cm long and as a complication of the gallstone in the liver duct bypass surgery was done at that area.
On Jan 4th, 2010, there was a block in my drain tube and was re-operated to rectify it. Now the bile is excreted from my body through a drain tube which is fixed from then operated area inside the body through a hole to the outside of the body. The drain usually stops within 6 to 8 weeks. But the drain is still heavily flowing (250 ml per day) and the doctors have instructed to repeat the surgery for rectifying the problem.
For the first surgery (28.12.09) the total bill amounts to Rs.96000/-. Then for the second surgery (04.01.10) the amount was Rs.25,000/-. The post operative medicines and antibiotics itself has crossed Rs.30000/-. Moreover now I have to undergo the surgery same as the first one for the rectification of the leak which has happened at the bypass junction. I have sold all my jewels including my thali chain. Now I am helpless and I beg at your feet to help me to get operated and recover from my current condition. I look forward for your kind help.

i had no idea that sumithra who was so excited in planning the new year event has gone through so much!!!!
Oh My GOD!...
This is really shocking...
I knew she underwent some surgery.... but never knew she is undergoing all these pains!!!
My Prayers are with Sumithra...
Knew abt her first surgery..But 2 consecutive ones.....Very Bad...
In one of my earlier initiatives in helpg smebdy, we had an account no. to which everybdy transferred the money...
Can u pl chk if smethg of that sort cud be organised...so that we all can easily deposit the money in that account.
Hi Bhavani,
Just give us the account number where we should transfer the amount and let the moms transfer it as per their wish. Hope this wud save more time and the amt can reach Sumithra earlier.
Sumithra,
Dont worry, u will be out of ur pains very soon.. We (Cmoms) are with u........ Have the confidence that GOD will be with u and ur family always.
Sumithra.. my prayers are with u and ur family.... everything will go along fine, dont worry.... cmoms are out here to help you throu this crisis in any and every way they can... keep faith in the Almighty...
Very sad to know...! Why dont we organise the summer camp and forward all the collections to Sumithrsree fund...? Bhavani, Sudha, Vaidehi, what do you think?
same thought I too have ...
maybe this month we all will help her by giving some amount ....how about next month or later ....we go for a meet up :
have some sales -
Girls please don't mistake me ....this is all i thought of giving as suggestions ....even better ideas may workout ....
even after post surgeries she maybe in need of money ...so that we can help her to some extent possible ....
OMG...........my hearty prayers to her.......
oh thatz nice idea girlz we can arrange some program .......and we can give tat money to her
Sumithra..
all cmoms prayers are with u and ur family....
everything will go along fine dont worry
but first thing some of us should go and meet her...
and next ...
faster start collecting the money...
and hand it over to admin... some of us can go and gve it...
Mangaladurga is right. We can transfet to one account or in each area somebody can take responsibility of collecting and give it to admin. Any mode, i am ready to help.
Sumithra , we all are with you and our prayers for your family ...You'll be alright dear...
What all she has been through! Will help her. But girls, we can also plan something to ensure her continuous financial help.
Like
Job for her husband - if he is alright now and can take up a job
Monthly household expenditure - how does she plan to meet that
School fees/education expenses
Insurance - is it possible to help her and her husband from future medical expenses. Any concession that can be got from the hospital.
Please don't get me wrong. Just trying to think how to help the family.
Sumithra,
We are all with you in this phase and shall definitely help you out. You sounded so cheerful even after the surgery when I spoke with you but so much has gone into this. Just out of curiosity, have you taken a second opinion on your condition. Hope you are at the right place else please change the hospital/doctor so you get better treatment.
Bhavani,
Is there a way we can arrange for an acct like Sumithra Fund so we can deposit the amount. Would she mind if I posted her email to a few of my friends from other networking sites. I am sure there are some good souls out there to help people in times of need.
I totally agree with Shanthi.....Is there anything else we can do for the family as a whole at this time.
ready to help...just say the procedure how to be done....sumithra , sure to keep u and ur family in our prayers.
Hope the god gives all the strength & support to sumithra.

Hi Cmoms,
Many moms have PMed me and I've passed on the account number to them. Please let me know the amount after you transfer.
Shall we freeze the last date to transfer as 28th March - sunday so that we can give the money to Sumithra next week?
Hope to get the garage sale also over by next week.
Hello everyone - Please excuse my below naive question, it's been a while i came to cmoms.
Hi Bhavani - what is PMing you? Want to contribute something for Sumithra. Should i send an individual email/msg to the admin id?
Lets hope our prayers share the strength To Sumithra and her family. And thanks to everyone who have already been a part of this good cause.
Gals..
Have anyone of you spoken to Sumitra ? I tried reachin her couple of times and there was no answer .....
I spoke to her today morning - Her operation wil lbe in April 1st week or second week..
Hai All Deal friends,
Just saw the blog.
Many many thanks for all your kind hearts for extending help for me and your sincere prayers to my family..
My surgery is fixed around 10th April. The surgery is to rectify the leak in the bye pass jucntion.
I have got a picture which is the post operative leak in galbladder removal


This bile will fall inside the body and will drain through the tube fised into the drain bag, which has to be emptied frequently.
If the bile comes down to 10 to 15 ml per 24 hour, the surgery would not have been fixed. Now the bile is 250 ml per 24 hour. So they have confirmed the leak and need of surgery.
Ihad been toputtaparthi for opinion of fre surgery for the past three days. If i had not answered anybody's call, kindly excuse me. You can call me or sms me if had not responded. I will surely call you back (if i had not picked the call). Thanks for all your support.
yours loving
Sumithra
