A Tiny Fighter’s Victory: Baby of Archana Nandkumar Shinde Recovers After Critical NICU Journey
Mother Archana Nandkumar Shinde went through an extremely difficult phase when her baby was born prematurely at just 780 grams, suffering from low birth weight, RDS, sepsis, and severe weakness. The newborn was immediately shifted to the NICU at Ankur Children’s Hospital & NICU, Islampur, even before the mother could hold him. Doctors anticipated a long hospital stay of nearly two months due to the baby’s fragile condition.
A Family Facing Hardship
The father, Nandkumar Shinde, works as a daily-wage plumber, earning only ₹15,000 per month. With no savings and heavy medical bills piling up, the family struggled to manage the cost of prolonged NICU treatment. They did everything they could, but a large amount was still needed to continue the baby’s care.
A Wave of Support Changed Everything
Thanks to the generosity of donors and the continuous support provided through the Little Heart Foundation, the baby received uninterrupted NICU treatment — oxygen support, ventilator care, antibiotics, and constant monitoring. The baby slowly started gaining weight and strength, improving from 780 grams to 1.290 kg, and later to 1.780 kg.
Each update showed steady progress, and every contribution played a direct role in keeping this newborn alive.
