"Despite expert treatment, Andrew's illness led to multiple organ complications and extensive treatment in the ICU, where he is still receiving treatment over 6 weeks later."
"Due to the severity of the infection, doctors were forced to amputate both of Wasil's legs in a life saving operation."
"This is a huge step forward in getting him safely home. The cost of the medical air ambulance is $248,000.00 and thanks to your charitable donations, we have been able to cover the upfront cost needed to make this happen."
"Wasil is currently medically stable, but has not regained full consciousness. However, he has been showing encouraging signs and is fighting hard."
Andrew Wasil contracted a severe strep throat infection after attending his brother's wedding in Mumbai, leading to septic shock and multiple organ complications. Despite expert treatment, he required extensive care in the ICU and ultimately had both legs amputated. A GoFundMe campaign was established by his sister to cover medical costs, including a $200,000 air ambulance trip back to Boston. Over $180,000 has been raised, allowing the family to pay for the flight, and Wasil is currently stable but not fully conscious.
