Why is treatment sometimes done earlier than the payment?
When a case is urgent and vital, hospitals often proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalisation of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts. That’s why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

Background
Rimi, a seven-year-old girl, resides with her parents. Although she has siblings, they currently live separately. Rimi exudes charm and joy, delighting in playing with her friends. Unexpectedly, Rimi began experiencing convulsions, with the first episode occurring in 2022. Her parents, gripped with fear and uncertainty, sought assistance, leading them to admit Rimi to Medical College Hospital for the first time. Fortunately, they had some savings at that time. Presently, Rimi faces a recurrence of convulsions compounded by liver complications and dire financial constraints. In their time of desperation, Rimi's parents implore Helpster Donors to extend financial support to alleviate their burden.
Medical history
Rimi, a charming and joyful 7-year-old girl, lived a vibrant life filled with laughter and play until she began experiencing unexpected seizures. After a thorough examination, she was diagnosed with epilepsy, a condition that threatened to overshadow her childhood with uncertainty and fear. With the compassionate support of Helpster Charity and the dedicated team at Light House Hospital, Rimi received the necessary treatment, which included antiepileptic medications and dietary therapy. As the days passed, Rimi's seizures became less frequent, allowing her to return to her beloved games and friends. Now, Rimi is thriving, her radiant smile lighting up every room, and her mother is filled with gratitude for the unwavering support they received. Together, they celebrate the gift of health and happiness, forever thankful to Helpster Charity for making a profound difference in their lives.
Prognosis
Treatment typically involves the use of antiepileptic drugs, surgical intervention, or dietary therapy. Epilepsy can lead to significant limitations in daily life due to the possibility of unexpected seizure episodes, increasing the risk of developing psychological and emotional problems.
