Bushra, a three-year-old girl, has long been suffering from Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukaemia, a rare form of blood cancer, says a press release.

She has lost her ability to walk as her hands and legs grew thinner and spleen became large.

She feels unwell all the time and is given blood transfusion frequently.

According to doctors, Bushra needs immediate bone marrow transplantation, which involves a huge amount of money.

But her parents could not afford such an expensive treatment.

They appealed to all sections of the society to extend a helping hand to save the life of their daughter.

Contributions can be sent to Kazi Nazmin Akhter, Savings A/C No.- 6662, Janata Bank, Shyamoli Branch, Dhaka. Telephone: 9110046, 01716157306, 0152479020.
