Celebrating Arish Karki: Our 144th Leo’s Kid to survive cancer!
We’re overjoyed to share the heartwarming news that our 196th Leo’s Kid, 12-year-old Arish Karki, has successfully completed his active treatment for a Brain Tumor and is now entering the maintenance phase! Arish is the 144th Leo’s Kid to survive cancer!
After 447 days of dedicated care and unwavering strength, Arish is finally heading home. Arish received his treatment at Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital. During these challenging 447 days, Arish and his family stayed at Leo’s Kid Arlene Miskelly Memorial flat, which became their home away from home.
His parents, Manish Karki and Sabita Karki, have been a pillar of strength, providing immense love and courage throughout Arish’s journey. Their dedication, along with Arish’s incredible resilience, has brought them to this significant milestone.
We are incredibly proud of Arish and his family and wish him all the best on his continued path to full recovery!
