Just thought this message deserves another thread, just so that it doesn't get lost in the sea of threads. I hope something works out for her. And best wishes for her fight against cancer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Medical Emergency!!!! Help needed. I got a call from an American family who lives in Idaho that a Nepali girl (19 year old freshman in Moscow, Idaho) has been diagnosed with a cancerous tumor. This family lived in Nepal for years and are close to the Nepali students there. The girl's family knows that their daughter has cancer, but doesn't know that within the last few days, she has been taken to Seattle for checkup, and a cure is very possible. She will be in the hospital going through cemo and surgery, with insurance covering her medical expenses, for a total of six months. Everyone she knows has been trying to find a person with a satellite phone to call her home. They need to fly her mom to Seattle from Nepal ASAP to take care of her following surgery. I tried calling people I knew with no luck finding someone who has access to a satellite phone. I am worried about the safety of my family in Nepal, but will wait out until the phone lines open up. However, this girl cannot. This is an emergency. Please please reply to this thread if you know anyone in Nepal with a satellite phone, and we will arrange details on getting her to call home. I apologize for posting this on multiple threads. Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DWI, I had a good friend going through Chemo, he needed all the family support he could get. So difficult was it for him to function, emotionally, mentally and physically. If I were in such a situation, I would like for my mother to be with me. I don't think that would be unreasonable.

Common Gorkhali bro, At times like these, even a small help means A LOT to the victim. I am a man( which Sitara might dispute :p) enough to take care of myself, have always been; by virtue of living away from home since i was 4-5 but even now, when i am really sick, i wish my mom was with me. It helps you know. No matter how much we grow up and be strong or if i may, Manly, or (Womanly for that matter) , it helps to have some to take care of you at times like these. And come to think of it, the poor girl has much more than a minor fever to worry about. But yes, I understand why u said about the posters being worried about her family. But please, lets' leave the politics of thoughts/beliefs outta this different human need. But you showed you've heart by raising the isue of money and your willingness. Perhaps, NepinMinnie should know if it's dire, we can help. Aru ta tyastai ho.. arko DC party kahile ho? LOL. Yeah true Sitara, but i was thinking, there are people who are GETTING e-mails or even calls in some cases to be posted/inform by our DISTINGUISED journalists from NEPAL, thus am assuming they are in constant touch. Can they not pass on this message to their sources and they in turn, to her parents? Among all thse information overload, i guess this is one information, if they could deliver, would ACTUALLY make a diff. Just a thought. IndisGuise:)

Gorkhali, Why are you so bitter about everything in this world? Why are you angry with everyone? Is your mental faculty working well? I suggest you to take a break from Sajha for a couple of days, and come back again after you regain your sanity.

Sitara I understand. And hence I said the prolonged part of the care can only be given by her parents. But Getting her parents here immediately, won't make the situation better..rather it might make it tense for her parents too. They already are in dire straits over there in KTM right now. I am not saying they should be in oblivion about this. They ouhgt to know it, but the priority should be to utilize what we have available. Something like paramedic working on a patient before doctor arrives.

hyaaaaa k ko bitter ni.............. all I am saying is let the doctors do their thing. when the operation is succesful, call her parents...... kina ailey nai babu ama lai pir garnuney vaneko..... ek diu din parkhey vai halyo ni....... bekar ma babu ama lai chinta matra huncha, and besides the girl who posted this message even said her parents know about her cancer, by the way I have a fren in Boise Idhaho if that helps, he works for HP there, he got connection's and he got ton's of money and he is very helpful, if the girl who posted this message is reading this let me know.... I can give you his no., call him he can help you here in USA... by the way there were few guys claiming they had talked to fren's in nepal via satellite phone.... check the threads... I hope those guys are still around......

DWI: I believe that you need a family member's authorization to begin chemo or any operation of such gravity. The risks involved have to be acknowledged by an authorized guardian in writing. Besides, there is the issue of insurance, liabilities and hospitalizations. You are not talking about a tooth extraction here.

Gorkhali-X, Is pickle (pickled cucumber) stuck up your arse? Sometimes you just have to learn to shut your mouth and not show what it is full of. Are you really this stupid or this Friday making you howl? Now I'm sure you have that kaagati nichoreko anuhar. Chemo therapy could be debilitating and very draining - physically and emotionally. Such person is not alway kept in the hospital - you dumbo. If she wants to talk to her family or wants to be with her mom, why the bugs crawl in your brain? Don't you have a mother or a family? You think everybody in Nepal is ok? Then why all the communications are shut down, people are either in house arrest or in prison, and a number of people are in jail for no perticular reason. You can't even think, pinhead. Go ahead, do your part in sucking up the a** of Gyane and his leutenants. Now, go and wash your mouth with soap water.

I received a response from one of the members here whose cousin is leaving for Nepal tomorrow. We are trying to get something going so that we can get the ill girl's mother here for her surgery and cemo. Thank you sajhaites for acting upon my request. Helping each other in need is all we Nepalis are about.

Gorkhali X Yeaa infact 18 years is a legal age in many countries including Nepal, US , Canada etc therefore the concerned individual can make decisions on his/her own.

bideshi, I PMed you, but the message bounced. I sent the same message to your yahoo address,which also bounced. I think if the person wanted Sajhaites to know about his cousin's trip to Nepal, he would have posted it. Out of respect, I think I should not. However, if I am not able to contact his cousin, would you be so kind to hand deliver the ill girl's message to her family in Nepal? ~Regards.

Sumbody please post the girl's address here or email it to me pronto !! My friend is departing for Nepal after exactly 12 hours 9 minutes.Hmm......I cannot promise my friend WILL reach Ktm as there are possibilities of her flight being cancelled, but I guess I should try. ~*-------------------News [ dunno if its already been posted]----------------------*~ Courtesy - http://news.independent.co.uk/world/asia/story.jsp?story=607554 Kathmandu seethes in silence after King's coup By Justin Huggler in Kathmandu 04 February 2005 Nepali television started broadcasting again last night. But all it offered were newsreaders reciting the official propaganda line from King Gyanendra. Soldiers had been posted in every newsroom to ensure all broadcasts were suitably loyal. A country that had a lively free press just three days ago has now been reduced to Soviet-style television. Kathmandu's streets are lined with soldiers armed with tear gas and assault rifles. Staff in newspaper offices are on edge. Conversations stop at the sight of an unfamiliar face. The reporters are suspicious of everyone. "We cannot speak freely," one journalist said. "We have to live here. We can't write about politics now. What are we going to put in the newspaper? Love stories." A tape recording is circulating, apparently of the leader of Nepal's biggest political party, Congress, calling for street protests against the King's coup. The Congress leader, G P Koirala, is under house arrest and it was not possible to confirm if it was his voice. Suddenly, information has become a limited commodity in Nepal. For three days, Kathmandu has been almost completely cut off, not only from the outside world, but from the rest of the country. No phone lines, no internet, no news reports. It is causing growing discontent. "The political parties never did any good," said one student. "We are not worried about them. But this is the 21st century. We have a right to communication. He cannot take it away." And this is in a country in the grip of a Maoist insurgency that has cost more than 10,000 lives, where the daily news bulletins usually carry reports of the latest violence. For three days there has been no word from the rest of Nepal. No news from the rural areas controlled by the Maoists, or the towns still under government control. "It's as if the Maoists had stopped the violence and stopped killing people," said Sushil Pyakurel of the National Human Rights Commission. "I don't think the Maoists stopped. I don't think either force stopped operations. Maybe the next time we meet I will be in prison. I fought for democracy before and I will fight for it again." Nepalis contacted by phone when lines were briefly open last night in the government-held town of Dharan Bazaar said many government troops had been deployed in the town. A general strike called by the Maoists was being observed in rural areas under their control. But it was largely ignored in Kathmandu. Usually shops close and life halts when the Maoists call a strike; everyone fears being singled out as an example. That Kathmandu ignored the strike calls may have been a sign that the policy of blocking information and communications had worked. "The right to communication has been withdrawn," Mr Pyakurel said. "The right to information has been withdrawn. Compare the newspapers on 1 February with the night before. There was a complete change." Despite the apparent call for protests yesterday from Mr Koirala the only demonstration was a rally in support of the King. Still, even there, students openly denounced his seizure of power in front of his supporters, and the watching soldiers. "I think it is not right what the King has done," said Dipendra Distan, 20, a student. "It is against the Nepali people. Nepal is going to end up like Cambodia, Romania or Somalia." A crowd gathered around him, many nodding at what he said. With the Maoists watching events from afar, it is the comparison with Cambodia that will have most resonance in Kathmandu. On the campus of Tribhuvan University, Nepal's main university, overlooked by the Himalayas, discontent is simmering and the students are on strike. But they say it has nothing to do with the Maoists' call for a strike. They are holding their own protest against the King's actions. Many student leaders have gone underground to avoid arrest. Unusually for Nepal, there is no welcome when you arrive at the university campus. There are no smiles, the students are grim-faced. These are angry people. "All the students are against the King," Amrit Kumar Shresta, a 28-year-old postgraduate and student leader said. "We need democracy and we will fight for democracy. The situation is critical. We are prepared to die for democracy. We don't believe the King wants peace with the Maoists. And even if he does, it will be a dead peace, without freedoms." It is a considerable headache for the West. Two months ago, Britain, the US and India warned King Gyanendra not to sack the government and take absolute power. Now he has called their bluff, trying to present himself as the only bulwark against the Maoists. That leaves the West with a dilemma: back Gyanendra, and his assault on human rights, or let Nepal fall into the hands of the Maoists, whom the West has condemned as "terrorists". For the West, either choice is unacceptable.
