Jan.1st, 2026: My "Now" Ties In To My "Why"

WHY?

Congenital Heart Disease Awareness.

February 14th is 'A DAY FOR HEARTS'. Not just the romantic Valentine's Day event - but also 'Congenital Heart Defects Awareness Day'.

An annual worldwide awareness-building effort to cast the spotlight on millions of little 'heart warriors' who battle their deadly birth defects - and win!

"I don't accept a child dying"

That has guided my professional work as a paediatric heart surgeon.

I established a non-profit to raise funds that sponsor costly, life-saving treatment for kids from underprivileged families with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD).

The effort has treated 152 children until now.

But there are 21 MILLION more kids who suffer from CHD. And 1.35 million are born with it every year. Many in my part of the world.

Also, children suffer from many other misfortunes or deficiencies. Some are hungry. Others are illiterate.

They, too, need our help.

Which brings us to...

NOW?

Here's what I'm doing now to raise CHD awareness and fund more surgeries:

  • Promote my books and ebooks, to raise funds that will sponsor heart operations, provide nutritious meals, and offer education for under-privileged kids.

  • Write more books, to offer readers who have enjoyed the earlier ones - and keep raising money to help more children in many other ways. (My latest is 'Dr.Mani's How To Focus'. You can get it here.)

  • Manage projects that execute these plans and strategies optimally.

Right now, these projects are top priority:

I hope you'll join in to help.

And wish me luck!
