#LeosKids
We introduced this precious little love to you in early August as our 52nd Leo’s Kid and now darling Menuka is one year old!
We spoke with her mom about some challenges Menuka has had recently due to her liver cancer. She recovered from an emergency a couple weeks ago when she needed to be rushed to the hospital for blood transfusions. Following her hospital stay she came back to our Leo’s Kids B-Flats near Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital in much better shape.
Now her active treatment can resume while her doctors decide if and when sweet Menuka may be eligible for surgery to remove some of the tumor in her liver.
We will keep you updated on precious Menuka’s progress here and on our website.
We deeply appreciate those of you who are able to partner with us financially to support these precious children and families either with a one-time donation or a monthly donation. This helps ensure our ability to provide ongoing support to these families in their time of crisis.
Please like and share this post with anyone you know who might be interested in the important work Team Leo’s Kids is doing to help support children with cancer in Nepal along with their families.
