Aasha Kumari Thapa Magar – 121

Our 121st Leo’s Kid Aasha, a 10-year-old, is from Lumbini located in the southwestern terai region of Nepal. She has a younger sibling, a brother. Prior to her diagnosis, Aasha studied in 3rd grade and parents are currently facing financial difficulties and do not have any source of income to support their family and meet their basic needs.

In December 2022, Aasha began experiencing symptoms such as difficulty in breathing, knee pain, body aches, fever, and coughing up blood. Her parents sought medical attention and brought her to Mahendra Hospital in Dang. Upon examination, the medical professionals at Mahendra Hospital recommended that Aasha be transferred to Kanti Children’s Hospital for further treatment.

On January 2023, Aasha’s parents brought her to Kanti Children’s Hospital for further examination. After being evaluated, Aasha was diagnosed with blood cancer. Currently, she has undergone two rounds of treatment out of the six rounds.

When Aasha arrived in Kathmandu for her cancer treatment, she and her family initially stayed at the hospital for a month. However, they are now staying at Arlene Miskelly Memorial Flats along with her mother, father, and younger brother and enjoyed activities such as reading books and playing.
