Muzammil is a little boy who is just 2 and a half years old. He is suffering from Heterotaxy Syndrome. It is a Rare Birth Defect which causes the internal organs to be abnormally arranged. He is not growing because his heart is enlarged and it uses all his energy. He needs multiple Heart Operations:
- He needs a Shunt for his single ventricle and his Cyanosis (the bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes, due to the tissues near to the skin having low oxygen saturation) so that he can get oxygen into his lungs. This first operation alone costs R500 000
- He will need another operation for his valves to be repaired. They are leaking, and this is causing his liver and kidneys to fail
- He will also need an operation to reconnect his great arteries which are also deformed.
Please help us raise funds, as he is fighting for his life.

In July 2016, at age of 2 years, Muzzammil was admitted to hospital with Severe Pneumonia. After many tests, he was diagnosed with Congenital Heart Defects and a rare form of Heterotaxy Syndrome.
Doctors have confirmed that he will need Multiple Operations. He is currently in Heart Failure and Medication has been prescribed for him until Doctors can find a way forward for him.
His condition is deteriorating day by day and he is in need of urgent assistance by means of funds as he is not on medical aid.
May God accept all your efforts in contributing whether Monetary or in Thoughts and Prayers. May God reward you and Thank You in advance. Thank you to all involved in this initiative May God bless you all abundantly in this world and the hereafter.
Please keep Muhammad Muzzammil in your Thoughts and Prayers.

Update posted by Chantal Bezuidenhout at 07:58 pmDeath is a daily occurrence, an inevitable end to the accepted "three score years and ten" model, a homecoming and part of the cycle of life.

Update posted by Chantal Bezuidenhout at 07:59 amSo - there is this little boy I have become acquainted with. He is a bright child who used to be extremely helpful before he got so ill. As 2 year olds do, he would always help clean up round the house. He has, until now, always been extremely bubbly. . . . .
