Family fights SMA: Aryan’s journey inspires call for support

Saturday, 27 APRIL 2024 | PNS | DEHRADUN

In a world where medical advancements are making the impossible possible, a family finds themselves in a race against time to save their two-year-old son, Aryan. Aryan’s parents Nirnay Murthy and Lalrinmawii Hmar are reaching out to the community via Impact Guru, sharing their son’s battle with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) type 2.

A year ago, Aryan, a bright-eyed toddler, began showing signs of developmental delay. After a series of consultations and tests, the diagnosis was confirmed as SMA type 2, a condition that gradually weakens Aryan’s muscles and leaves him vulnerable to respiratory failure.

Amidst this challenging situation, a beacon of hope emerged in the form of ZOLGENSMA, a revolutionary treatment that could significantly improve Aryan’s quality of life. However, the cost of this treatment is a staggering INR 16.5 crore, a sum beyond the reach of most families.

The family is now turning to the community, seeking support to help secure this life-saving treatment for Aryan. They believe in the power of collective action and the kindness of individuals. Any contribution, regardless of its size, will bring them closer to their goal.

In addition to financial support, the family is also urging people to share Aryan’s story to raise awareness about SMA and the impact it has on families. They are hopeful that with the community’s support, they can secure a brighter future for Aryan.

The goal amount of the campaign may exceed the cost estimates provided due to potential post-treatment expenses such as prolonged medication, diagnostics, rehabilitation therapies and follow-up consultations, which can vary based on the disease.
