When Swostika Majhi was admitted to Sushma Koirala Memorial Hospital for plastic surgery to treat a hyperkeratotic plaque, she weighed just 14.2 kg. To ensure she was strong enough for treatment, the hospital’s Nutrition Department recommended a specialized daily diet.
Swostika’s family was unable to afford this essential care due to financial hardship. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, The Nestling Trust stepped in to fund her daily nutritional assistance throughout her hospital stay.
With proper nutrition, Swostika’s multi-stage surgeries were completed successfully without complications. After 39 days of care, she was discharged in good health, weighing a much stronger 17.4 kg.
Continuing Recovery
The hospital continues to stay in close touch with Swostika's family to track her progress. We are thrilled to share that she now weighs 18.6 kg and has officially started going to school—a major milestone in her return to a normal, happy childhood.
She will return for a follow-up appointment in three months, and the medical team will continue monitoring her ongoing health.
Everyone at The Nestling Trust extends a heartfelt thank you to our supporters for making stories like Swostika’s possible, helping her move toward a healthier, stronger, and brighter future.

 Samiksha is 10 yers old and had lost several members of her family to Covid including her brother, aunt and grandmother. Her mother, Laxmi was gravely ill with a heart condition and needed an operation to save her life. Samiksha's father was poor and had no money so he sold his land where he grew vegetables, and neighbours contributed what they could afford. Still there was not enough rupees to pay for the operation and Samiksha was unconsolable knowing how ill her mother was and that without the operation she would die. The Nestling Trust heard of the situation and how many local people had each given money while so poor themselves and stepped in to try to ensure the story has a happy ending. 
Laxmi had the operation, following which, she was in intensive care for a worrying few days. TNT are delighted to say that she has now made a full recovery and is reunited with her daughter at home again.

​This happy little boy is Krishna, now 9 years old, celebrating Tihar Festival with his friends at SERC School, Nepal. Six years ago he was unable to speak, stand or move his arms or hands. Rescued by the Nestling Trust (TNT) two weeks before the Nepal earthquake, he has been cared for at SERC School for children with special needs, receiving daily physiotherapy and speech therapy. He now can run, play and communicate in simple sentences and is independent in all activities of daily living.
TNT wishes to thank all physios and staff for their care, skills, and compassion. We also thank all those who have donated to the Nestling Trust making it possible for us to support Krishna
