NSTnation: The parents of two infants suffering from heart ailments are appealing for donations.
Two-month-old Tang Gaa Xin and 3-month-old Che Kumar Ammar Zaqwan Ab Hamid need RM80,000 and RM60,000, respectively for surgeries.
“When Gaa Xin was 25 days old, he couldn’t stop crying, and his lips and nails turned pale. I rushed him to the hospital and doctors detected a 1cm and 0.5cm hole in the wall of his heart. He underwent two surgeries,” said Tang, who helps in the family’s baking business. Che Kumar suffers from transposition of great arteries, in which two major vessels switched places. He needs surgery to place those vessels to their pumping chambers.
“My son cried nonstop and became weak. He vomited after my wife breastfed him. The next day, I went to the hospital and the doctor said my son was in critical condition. He had to undergo surgery right away. But that minor surgery failed and my son needs to undergo open-heart surgery at Gleneagles.”
