Today, we open our hearts and welcome our 234th brave Leo’s Kid, 8-month-old Sonik Khanal, into our family. Little Sonik, from Nuwakot, is currently undergoing treatment for liver cancer at Patan Hospital.
Sonik’s journey began at five months old, when he was a healthy, joyful baby. At six months, a fever and loss of appetite led his parents, Arjun and Saraswoti Khanal, to seek medical help. They are a farming family from Nuwakot, with one other child. A medical checkup at Trisuli Hospital revealed abnormal tissue, and after a referral to Kanti Children’s Hospital, the difficult diagnosis of cancer was confirmed. He is now receiving care at Patan Hospital and staying with us at Leo’s Kids P-Flat.
Even at such a young age, Sonik shows incredible resilience. We are committed to providing him and his family with long-term housing, food, transportation, and support for his medical expenses throughout his treatment journey.
Let’s surround baby Sonik and his family with love and positive energy as they navigate this challenging time. Your support makes a world of difference for families like the Khanals.
If you’d like to support brave Leo’s Kids like Sonik, please consider donating. 🙏🏽 Your kindness changes lives.
