Teenager Who Braved Bullying In Childhood Will Lose His Lifetime Battle To Liver Cancer Without Urgent Help

“After his second surgery in 2008 to get the tumour removed, he developed a small hole in his abdomen that was partially exposed. This meant that he would unknowingly pass stools through it sometimes. He had no control over it; so he had to keep the area covered with ragged clothes all the time. He covered it under his shirt all the time, but his classmates came to know about it gradually and made fun of him. How could my then 8-year-old son tell them that he was facing all this because of cancer?”-Venkatesan, father of 18-year-old Jaya Surya.Lakshmi and Venkatesan fear to leave Jaya Surya's side even for a minute because they are afraid they will lose himLiver cancer came for Jaya Surya when he was just 1-and-a-half years old; it has held on to him like a curse for 16 years nowJaya Surya’s birth was celebrated like a festival in his home because his parents had gone through a lot of difficult times to get married.

In the two years that Nisha and I have known each other, we’ve had to overcome many hurdles. Both of us worked very hard to provide for our families. At some point, we realized that it was time to start building a life for ourselves. We decided to get married, without the approval of my family. It was meant to be the start of a new life for us, but four months after our wedding, Nisha was diagnosed with throat cancer. By the time we found out, the tumour was already blocking her wind and food pipe.The first thing Nisha said when she found out it was cancer is that she would rather die than suffer through this.

But I couldn’t accept it, I kept enquiring about other hospitals and doctors and finally found hope in Apollo. The
