Gowtham – A Step Closer to a Healthy Future

07 Jul 2026 Patient photo

Gowtham, a native of Thiruvallur District, is the only son of Ms. Kavitha and is currently studying in Class I at a Government School. He was born prematurely at 34 weeks of gestation and was diagnosed with complex congenital heart disease, along with a congenital deformity of his right upper limb.

Since birth, Gowtham has faced numerous health challenges and has undergone several procedures in the hope of leading a healthier life. In July 2022, he was diagnosed with pulmonary arterial and venous hypertension and underwent PA banding, atrial septectomy, and division of the ductal ligament. More recently, in March 2026, he underwent cardiac catheterization. Based on his current condition, his treating doctors advised another major corrective surgery consisting of PA banding, atrial septectomy, and left pulmonary artery (LPA) plasty.
The estimated cost of Gowtham’s surgery was ₹3,50,000/-, including surgery, ICU care, hospital stay, post-operative investigations, and medications.

Gowtham’s family has been going through immense hardship. His father abandoned the family due to the child’s prolonged medical condition. His mother, Ms. Kavitha, is herself a diabetic patient with severe vision problems, making it difficult for her to earn a livelihood. She currently lives with her elderly mother, who helps care for Gowtham. The family struggles to meet even their basic daily needs, and arranging the amount required for his treatment was beyond their financial capacity.

With the compassionate support of generous donors, the required funds have now been successfully raised. This support has brought immense relief to Gowtham’s family and has helped him move closer to receiving his much-needed corrective cardiac surgery under the expert care of the cardiac team at MIOT Hospitals.

Our Heartfelt Thanks to Our Supporters

We extend our sincere gratitude to every donor who came forward to support Gowtham. Your kindness and generosity have eased a significant financial burden on his family and given them renewed hope during this challenging time.

Because of your valuable support, Gowtham is now one step closer to receiving the treatment he needs and moving towards a healthier future, with the opportunity to grow, learn, and dream like every other child.

Thank you for your compassion, generosity, and for being an invaluable part of Gowtham’s journey towards recovery.
