A father has sought financial assistance from affluent people for the treatment of his two daughters suffering from thalassaemia.

Nine-year-old Nasrin Akhtar and 14-year-old Nurun Nahar have been suffering from the disease since their birth. They have to have blood transfusion every month.

According to doctors, the girls should undergo bone marrow transplantation immediately, which involves a huge amount of money.

But their father Nurul Islam, an assistant professor of Haji Monir Ahmed College in Feni, could not afford such an expensive treatment. He has appealed to generous people to extend a helping hand to save his daughters.

Contributions can be sent to Nurul Islam, Account No.-3642, Bangladesh Krishi Bank, GM Hat Branch, Feni. Interested persons can also contact him on 0188747889 or 01199126467, says a press release.
