Naparima College pupil paralysed

THE family of Naparima College pupil Sachin Kalpee, who became paralysed from the neck down after a fall at school last year, is trying to raise funds to pay for his medical treatment abroad.
Kalpee, 15, has been at the San Fernando General Hospital for the past three months. The boy has been diagnosed with transverse myelitis (TM), a rare inflammatory disease causing injury to the spinal cord. There is no known cure for the ailment.
The cost of treatment abroad is approximately US$90,000 a month, said his mother, Patricia Kalpee.
She said her son, a third form pupil, fell while playing football at school during a lunch break on November 26, injuring his head and back.
She said within two hours, "his entire body shut down".
Sachin spent two months in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at San Fernando General before being transferred to the surgical ward. He now relies on oxygen to help him breathe and his speech is slurred.
Acting vice-principal of Naparima College, Dev Gosine, said the school has donated thousands of dollars to the Kalpee family for treatment. The money was raised through donations and fund-raisers at the school.
He said the school will continue to raise funds for Kalpee and another pupil in need of finance for medical purposes.
Gosine reminded parents that they had the option of insuring their children upon registration at the school.
Patricia Kalpee said the school did indeed donate at least $16,000 to help her child.
A neurosurgeon said treatment was available locally, but it was not the best.
"Once a diagnosis is made, the treatment is usually conservative and rehabilitative in nature. There are no drugs that you give for it. Treatment is available all over the world. There will be better rehabilitative facilities abroad than we have in Trinidad and Tobago.
"The current state of our rehabilitative treatment is not as advanced as you would get in first-world countries," the medical source said.
The teenager cannot access the State's Children's Life Fund because treatment is available locally.
Kalpee said she has been in contact with Johns Hopkins Hospital in Maryland, USA, and the hospital has agreed to accept Sachin for treatment.
Kalpee said she was not sure how long he may have to stay there, but it should be at least one year. Sachin will have to be taken by air ambulance, which would be an additional US$41,000 one way.
"Right now he is using oxygen to breathe. I want him to be able to breathe on his own before we travel because I don't know what could happen when he is up in the air," said his mother.
On Saturday April 20, the family will be having a fund-raising dinner.
Kalpee said she will also be requesting financial assistance from the Government.
An account will be set up soon for public donations.
Anyone willing to assist can contact Kalpee at 386-7836.
