Appeal for help

Staff Correspondent
Nayeem Hossain, a three-year-old boy, has been suffering from hydrocephalus, also known as 'water on the brain', since his birth.

His father Md Nurul Islam of Haragacha upazila, Rangpur, appealed for financial assistance for the treatment of the boy who urgently needs surgery to remove the fluid accumulated in his head. His brain, however, is functioning normally.

The operation will cost Tk 70,000 at the Apollo Gleneagles Hospital in Kolkata, Islam said.

He appealed to the generous people to extend a helping hand to save his son.

Contributions can be sent to the following account: Md Nurul Islam, savings account No. 1830, Uttara Bank, Haragacha Branch, Rangpur.
