 Hello, I am Mrs. Homey Patel. Me and my husband, we are from Bombay. However, we had come here to my son's place for a holiday. After coming to Bangalore, he suddenly took ill because he has always had liver issues. It was cirrhosis and which was getting from back to us. He had to be admitted to ICU three times within a period of one and a half months. Every 15 days, he used to just not get up in the morning. He would not recognize anybody, couldn't hear, couldn't open his eyes. And early morning, we had to just move him to the ICU in Manipal Hospital because that was nearest to our house. So I am Dr. Sanjeev Rahat Ghee. I am Chief Liver Transplant Surgeon at Manipal Hospital Whitefield. I would like to share with you about Mr. Kusru Patel who was 72-year-old young when he came to me and he had a lot of ascites and he was getting into encephalopathy every now and then. So here was a dilemma that at 72 years of age, whether we should offer a transplant to this gentleman who was very keen for it and wanted a transplant if we could. So I worked him up completely to see whether there is anything which we are missing, how his heart was and how his lung conditions were and then we decided to go ahead with him. Dr. Sanjeev Rahat Ghee whom we had consulted, he suggested that we should go in for liver transplant. The doctor was good enough to give us a full detail of how he would be performing and the anesthetist also gave us a briefing about what will happen to him inside. Surgery took place from around 12 in the night to next day afternoon 12.30. The next day we were called and the surgery was over which was successful. Kusru Patel who had chronic liver disease with multiple decompensation, he was elderly and rest of the world generally they don't recommend liver transplant. We thought that we let us give a try for a liver transplant. So when we worked him up for liver transplant we were little worried that he would have some stomy course in the during surgery in the post-operative period in view of his age who is one of the probably one of the oldest to receive liver transplant in Karnataka. But fortunately he had a very smooth surgery with minimal blood loss and we had very minimal transfusion during surgery and had a very smooth recovery in the post-operative period. Hello, my name is Kusru Nadeesa Patel and I am 72 years old and I have a liver transplant. And now I am feeling very good. I have been taking a good walk for 30 minutes and I am eating very well. And the motion is also very regular and the sleep is also very good. So I feel very cheerful right now and the first pain that I had was not at all. So I had admitted to Manipal Hospital White Film and I got very good treatment there. Dr. Sanjeev and his team have given me a very beautiful treatment. So it was a very successful story to be honest. He came out of the transplant and was out of the hospital within 10-12 days. And here he is with me in three months down the line and he is very hailing hearty and looks very healthy to me. I think he should live up to 100 years. And we are very happy with the team of Dr. Sanjeev and the sisters and nurses in the OT as well as in the ICU who gave very caring attention to my husband. He has got a new lease of life. Of course, credit should also go to the donor and his family who very graciously gave us the liver and we are grateful to him as well as to the doctors and the hospital. Thank you.
