Ithal, a 2-month-old baby girl from Kannur, Kerala, India, required treatment for a congenital heart condition and underwent VSD (Ventricular Septal Defect) Closure.

In 2018, Ithal received specialised cardiac treatment at AIMS, Cochin. VSD closure is performed to repair an abnormal opening between the lower chambers of the heart, helping improve blood circulation and reduce strain on the heart.

With timely medical care and fundraising support, Ithal was able to access the paediatric cardiac treatment she needed at just two months old. Her journey highlights how financial assistance can help families secure essential heart surgery for infants with congenital heart conditions and support a healthier future.
