Nuffnang Charity Project - Baby Ammar

Updates: Good news. Baby Ammar already has sufficient funding for the surgery. Thank you all that has contributed whether monetary or something else. Read the full details here.

Baby Ammar needs your help. He has a heart condition and need to perform a surgery and there's need of fund for this surgery.

Snippets from Nuffnang.."2-year-old Ammar Danish has suffered from Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) since birth. He has a hole in his heart which results in oxygenated blood and non-oxygenated blood mixing together, which in turn puts a lot of strain on his heart and lung arteries. In some cases, the hole eventually seals itself up after some time, but during a routine checkup on 11 January 2010, it was clear that that wasn’t the case with Baby Ammar and doctors pronounced surgery as being necessary to prevent the situation from growing worse."

You can read more about his condition in his's mother's blog.

I'm helping by making this message known by more people so that they know how they can help too.
