ੴ Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh ੴ

"Dukh Bhanjan Tera Naam Ji, Dukh Bhanjan Tera Naam..." 🙏✨

I have absolute faith in Waheguru that He will pull my Shahin out of the jaws of death. As a humble person and a helpless husband, I stand before this community with folded hands. Waheguru Ji has guided your kind hearts to support us in the past, and I deeply pray that in this hour of extreme crisis, Guru Sahib moves your hearts to show mercy and stand by us once again. Please hear our prayers.

Hello everyone,

I am writing this with a heart full of gratitude but a soul crushed by fear. We are sharing this crucial update directly from our hospital visit today at RGCIRC to keep all of you informed about Shahin's critical medical situation.

First, a special thanks to everyone for Raheel. Because of your incredible support and prayers, my 1.5-year-old son Raheel is finally doing better and is now stable. However, as one battle settles, my wife Shahin’s fight against cancer has become immensely difficult. We are back in a terrifying situation. Shahin remains completely bed-bound at home, and her condition is deteriorating day by day.

🛑 Latest Medical Situation & Doctor's Notes (As of Today, 20-May-2026)

1.Weight Dropped to 29kg & No Surgery: Shahin's body weight has dropped drastically to just 29 kg. Because of her extreme weakness and frail physical condition, the neurosurgeon and oncologists have clearly stated that she cannot undergo any surgical stabilization.

2.Unstable Spine & Severe Pain: Her spine's stability score (SINS Score) is now more than 12, meaning her spine is highly unstable and under constant threat of further pathological collapse. She is in excruciating pain and requires heavy nerve and pain medications just to survive the day.

3.New Expensive Injections Started Today: To control the bone damage and aggressive progression, the doctor has immediately prescribed Inj Ecentra 120 mg (Subcutaneous) and Inj Fulvaa 500 mg (Intramuscular) starting today, along with ongoing targeted therapies. These new lines of treatment have massively escalated our daily expenses overnight.

4.Breast Wound & Aggressive Spread: The cancer has progressed with new angry-red nodules over her breast area with constant pus and serous discharge. The disease has actively spread to her neck lymph nodes and liver parenchymal.

🔬 Liquid Biopsy & Treatment Costs Awaited.

While Shahin is already undergoing Targeted Immunotherapy, the rapid progression forced us to submit samples for a Liquid Biopsy. We are currently awaiting these reports to see if any alternate medical formulations are needed, which will increase the treatment plan and expenses even further.

🙏 An Emotional Thank You: Your Support Has Kept Us Alive.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you with folded hands. Initially, I managed to spend ₹11 Lakhs entirely on my own by exhausting all my savings and taking multiple personal loans.

Since then, the treatment expenses over the last few months have escalated to ₹22 to ₹23 Lakhs. This massive extension of her treatment was made possible purely because of the ₹18 Lakhs raised through your overwhelming public support. Without your kindness, I would not have been able to sustain her treatment this far.

With these new medical complications, expensive injections, and continuous care, my resources are completely depleted. I beg you—please do not leave our side during this dark phase. Shahin is fighting with everything she has just to see her baby boy grow up. Please help us save her life.

India's U17 women face hosts China in the AFC U17 Women's Asian Cup quarterfinal on Monday.

A win would send India to the 2026 FIFA U17 Women's World Cup in Morocco through qualification for the first time.

Hello Everyone,

On 2nd May 2026 My 6-year-old little sister Vishakha was diagnosed with Thalassemia Major in CMC, vellore.

We live in Vellore, and honestly, our family was never financially strong to begin with. My father’s all income goes to family needs and my and mine sister’s education Fees.

The treatment cost is nearly ₹16 lakhs, which is completely beyond what our family can afford.

I am her elder sister, 16 years old, and I just completed my 10th class. I want to help my little sister and support my family in any way I can, so I’m doing whatever possible by posting here and asking people for help.

Vishakha is only 6 years old. Seeing someone so small go through hospital visits and treatments is heartbreaking.

I’m posting this here with folded hands asking for help — whether it’s a donation, sharing this post, or guiding us toward organizations that help children with Thalassemia treatment.

Every small contribution matters to us right now.

If any proof, medical reports, hospital documents required I’m ready to share them.

Please help us give Vishakha a chance to live a healthy childhood.

Thank you for reading.

I am writing this with a heart full of gratitude but a soul crushed by fear. While my 1.5-year-old son Raheel is finally doing better thanks to your prayers, my wife Shahin’s battle has become incredibly difficult.

Latest PET-CT Scan Findings (May 2026):

The PET-CT Scan conducted on May 6, 2026, has brought devastating news:

1.Disease Progression: Compared to her previous scan in January, the cancer is spreading rapidly.

2.New Tumors in Breast: A large, soft tissue mass (2.4 x 3.3 cm) has developed in the right breast along with new nodular lesions on the skin.

3.Spread to Liver & Neck: The cancer has now reached new areas, including the Liver (Hepatic parenchymal lesion) and the Neck (Cervical lymph node).

4.Spine Condition: Shahin has been bedridden for the past year, but now multiple parts of her spine (Dorsolumbar vertebrae) have partially collapsed, making her pain unbearable.

New Update: Biopsy and The Road Ahead

Due to the severity of these new findings, doctors have recommended a Liquid Biopsy, for which we submitted the sample yesterday. We are currently waiting for the reports. Once the results are in, the treatment plan and expenses are expected to rise significantly, and I will likely need to increase the fundraiser goal. As many of you know, this battle against cancer has been long and exhausting.

Currently, I have no resources left for the upcoming major treatments. I beg you with folded hands—please help us. Please share and spread this post as much as possible so that regardless of what the biopsy reveals, we can provide Shahin with the best possible care.

I've been in quite dilemma, I've been wanting to give flowers to my boyfriend but he hasn't told his parents he's dating someone and if he'll go home with flowers then that will obviously be a nuisance for him so I was thinking about these origami ones which would be comparatively more convenient for him.

What's getting me confused is, not being sexist here but we girls love pretty things and cherish them and I know guys love flowers too, they look great their smell lingers and carry all the sweet memories but these paper ones?

So should I make something like this or get him something more practical and useful [if that's the case give suggestions please].

From the trenches of World War I to Saragarhi, Kashmir 1947, Rezang La era battles, and Kargil — Sikh soldiers and Punjabi regiments built one of the fiercest military reputations in South Asian history.

The Sikh Regiment traces its roots back to 1846 and became known for frontline infantry warfare, high-risk assault missions, and extraordinary battlefield discipline.

Some facts that genuinely surprised me:

• Battle of Saragarhi (1897): 21 Sikh soldiers fought against thousands and held their post till the last man.
• Sikh troops fought in Europe, Gallipoli, Burma, North Africa, and the Middle East during both World Wars.
• In 1947, Sikh troops were among the first airlifted to defend Srinagar after the invasion of Kashmir.
• Subedar Joginder Singh of the Sikh Regiment received the Param Vir Chakra after fighting Chinese forces despite being badly wounded in 1962.
• Sikh soldiers became globally recognizable because of their turbans and battlefield reputation during British Indian Army campaigns.

What’s interesting is that even though Sikhs were a small percentage of India’s population, they formed a disproportionately high percentage of combat infantry during several periods of military history.

At the same time, India’s military legacy was built collectively — alongside Gurkhas, Rajputs, Jats, Dogras, Marathas, Kumaonis, South Indian regiments, Northeast soldiers, artillery, armored corps, Air Force, and Navy personnel.

Still, the martial legacy of Sikh soldiers remains one of the most respected and documented military traditions in the world.
