Urgent – Medical Assistance Appeal for Mrs. Nilofer Jehangir Katrak

I have once again received an appeal from Mr. Jehangir Noshirwan Katrak for his wife Nilofer Katrak age 47 years. They live in Shapurji Bharucha Baug, Andheri.

Nilofer was diagnosed for breast cancer on February 4, 2010, and was operated for modified Radical Mastectomy on May 18, 2010 at Bharatiya Arogya Nidhi General Hospial by Dr.Ratna S. Parikh, General surgeon and Breast Specialist.

Jehangir is a part-time mobed at Patel Agiary in Andheri (west), Erv. Kersi Katila Panthaki of the Patel Agiary who also resides at Shapurji Bharucha Baug, has referred this case. Jehangir earns approx. Rs.200/- per day (depending only on availability of prayers to be done on a particular day). His 84 years old, Father Mr. Noshirwan J. Katrak, who has retired and lives at Umbergan (Gujarat State) sends him Rs.3,000/- per month. But his health is also failing now. Jehangir does not have any other job from where he can earn a living. Jehangir also has 80 years old mother who lives with him in Bombay. His wife Nilofer is a housewife who used to cook and supply meals/tiffins and Jehangir used to help her out at home. Since the operation she has been advised not to exert too much due to excessive swelling and painful arm. The only income they used to have from supplying meals has been stopped since then.

Unfortunately, her recent C.T. Scan report shows IV Grade disease and has to undergo another operation (enclosed appeal from Jehangir is self explanatory) and they do not have a Medical Policy to back their expenses. The income they have at the moment, from praying at the agiary and what his father sends is not enough for the day to expenses + the medical cost.

All the Medical reports, receipts etc are available with Jehangir Katrak.
