She said, "We were scared when the doctors have told us about her health condition. We were suggested by the doctors that Sakeena should undergo radiotherapy in order to save her. We have received funds from the Telangana Government and the whole amount got exhausted in her radiotherapy and now we're are back to square one in terms of finance for her treatment, after spending money on all the medical requirements."
Bilkes Begum said, "Looking at the family condition, Syed came forward to help. That is when my son decided to help us out, he said that he would be selling the bird food along with me and had set a separate bench for selling bird food on roads."
She said that the income that they both earn by selling bird food is just enough to look after her medicines and diagnosis expenditure including MRI, X-ray, and blood tests. She appealed to people to come forward and help them in saving her daughter.
