"He keeps saying that he's fine, but he's struggling to hold back his tears. I have seen him crying in silence. He's scared but he tries to hide it from us. 3 years ago, we found out that the holes in his heart were growing. I was asked to pay Rs3,500 for the tests but I didn't have that much money, so we couldn't get the tests done. That's the biggest mistake I've made. Now he can't even walk or talk for a long time. He breathes so heavily. I feel he might leave us at any moment." - Manimaran, father.Deepak was born with a complex heart problem and a funnel chestWithin a few hours of Deepak's birth, a loud murmur was heard from his heart.
