Baby Maher Fatema Nadeem Ahmad, a 9-year-old girl, has been diagnosed with Hyper Immunoglobulin E (IgE) Syndrome, a rare Primary Immunodeficiency Disorder that affects the body's immune system, making her highly susceptible to recurrent and severe bacterial and fungal infections.

This condition requires continuous medical supervision, long-term treatment, and supportive care to prevent life-threatening infections and improve her overall quality of life.

Due to her underlying immunodeficiency, Baby Maher Fatema experiences recurrent infections and requires specialized treatment under the Department of Immunology. Her condition necessitates regular immunological evaluation, prolonged medical management, and close monitoring to prevent complications.

She is currently undergoing treatment and requires ongoing supportive therapy until her condition stabilizes and she becomes eligible for definitive treatment.

The treating Immunology team has advised the following treatment plan:

• Regular Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) Therapy
• Intravenous and oral antibiotics
• Antifungal medications
• Steroid therapy
• Blood and blood product support whenever required
• Hospitalization, investigations, and continuous supportive care

The duration of treatment will continue until the child stabilizes and can be considered for definitive therapy.

With regular treatment and supportive care, the prognosis is good, and timely continuation of therapy is essential to prevent severe infections and improve long-term health outcomes.

The estimated annual cost of treatment is approximately:

₹5,00,000/- (Rupees Five Lakh Only)

Estimated Expenditure

• Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG): ₹3,00,000/-
• Blood/Blood Products & Other Supportive Care: ₹1,00,000/-
• Hospitalization & Investigations: ₹1,00,000/-

Total Estimated Annual Cost: ₹5,00,000/-

The actual expenditure may vary depending upon the child's clinical condition, frequency of infections, duration of hospitalization, and treatment requirements.

Baby Maher Fatema belongs to an economically challenged family that is struggling to meet the substantial financial burden of her long-term medical treatment. The recurring cost of IVIG therapy, medications, investigations, and hospital care is beyond the family's financial capacity.

We earnestly appeal to generous donors, charitable trusts, philanthropic organizations, corporate CSR initiatives, and kind-hearted individuals to extend financial support for Baby Maher Fatema's ongoing treatment.

Your valuable contribution will help provide:

• Regular IVIG therapy
• Antibiotics, antifungal medications, and steroids
• Blood products and supportive care
• Hospitalization and laboratory investigations
• Specialized immunology care and follow-up

Every contribution, regardless of its amount, will directly support this child's life-saving treatment and help her lead a healthier life.

Baby Maher Fatema Nadeem Ahmad is courageously battling a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder that requires lifelong specialized care and regular IVIG therapy. With timely treatment and compassionate financial support, she has an excellent chance of avoiding serious infections and enjoying a better quality of life.
