About Ridhwan

At just 29 years old, Ahamed Ridhwan T. V., a B.Sc. Optometry graduate, is facing one of the toughest battles of his life. Ridhwan is not asking for luxury. He needs an opportunity to continue his treatment and fight for his future.

His medical situation

Ridhwan has been diagnosed with Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL), ALK-negative — a rare form of T-cell lymphoma. After previously undergoing treatment, the cancer has unfortunately returned.

Treatment needed

His doctors at Aster MIMS Hospital, Kozhikode, Kerala have recommended intensive treatment, including high-dose chemotherapy followed by an autologous stem cell transplant. After the transplant he will need further care, including Brentuximab maintenance therapy every three weeks for one year.

Estimated medical expenses

According to the medical estimate issued by Aster MIMS Hospital on 26 October 2026: • ₹15,00,000 – Stem cell transplant procedure • ₹40,00,000 – Post-transplant treatment and maintenance therapy • ₹55,00,000 – Total estimated medical expenses

Why we need your support

These expenses are a significant financial challenge for the family. We are reaching out to compassionate individuals, students, professionals, institutions and communities to help Ridhwan access the treatment he needs.

How donations will be used

Funds go toward the stem cell transplant, high-dose chemotherapy, Brentuximab maintenance therapy and related medical care at Aster MIMS Hospital.
