Help save Bandula’s life
View(s):Journalist and former diplomat Bandula Jayasekara has been suffering from blood cancer for the past 14 months.
He was planning to undergo bone marrow transplant in Singapore as it cannot be done in Sri Lanka.
Well-wishers have been raising funds for his transplant. A donor was available. However, COVID-19 came in between and the transplant got delayed.
He is currently undergoing chemotherapy, blood and platelets transfusions.
He has suffered various setbacks in his fight to become a cancer survivor. Frequent hospitalisation with infections has resulted in him incurring high medical costs in his battle with cancer. A delay in carrying out the transplant could endanger his life.
An appeal has been made to persons to donate generously to save his life.
Those interested could send contributions to the special cancer treatment account created by three of his friends. Commercial Bank, Battaramulla branch; Account No. 8005463011, Bank Code – 7056, Branch Code – 029, Swift Code – CCEYLKLX.
Those who are sending their donations from overseas need to mention Bandula Jayasekara as the name of the account.
