A baby makes love stronger, the days shorter, the nights longer, savings smaller, and a home happier.

They say a baby makes the home, a heart, and brings joy to every parent. Ravish and Anita were eagerly waiting for the birth of their child. They were full of hope , anxiety and prayer for this bundle of joy , at the sametime fearing as they had lost their 1st one just 2 years back. Baby of Anita was born at 36 weeks. She was frail with low birth weight and suffered from respiratory distress. She had Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR), a condition in which a fetus does not grow at the expected rate during pregnancy. It results in the baby being smaller than normal for their gestational age, often below the 10th percentile for weight. This little warrior was fighting for her life. There was also abnormal blood flow to her heart, which led to feed intolerance, where she couldn’t tolerate oral or tube feeding. The baby was born in ___ and shifted to Rangadore Hospital in Bengaluru to provide her with NICU support.

Ravish earned a meager salary and just somehow managed to keep his family expenses going. Understanding his financial distress, Rangadore Hospital reached out to NFI for support.

Every day was a fight for survival, with the little one covered in tubes. Every parent prays and hopes to have a healthy baby, Ravish and Anita did not expect this to happen to them. They would see their baby in the NICU ventilator. But help came in the form of financial aid from NFI and medical support from the doctors at the hospital, Baby of Anita had won her war, having just entered this world.

Today at 4.5 months, she is a naughty little munchkin, cooing away to greet her father, and loves to watch cats running around her house.
