By Child Heart Foundation - March 19, 2020

Princy aged 11 years was born in Ludhiana, Punjab. Her father Mr. Subash Chander drives an Auto Rickshaw and is the only earning member in the family. He used to work for long duration to support the family which comprises of five members. Princy has two siblings – one brother and a sister.

Around 20 months ago, Princy experienced shortness of breath and dizziness while she was playing with her siblings. The family had assumed that it a result of playing in the heat and consulted a local doctor. These symptoms became repetitive and consistent with time and the parents – Subash and Sita became concerned a consulted a doctor in their locality.

Based on the recurrence of symptoms the doctors advised them to visit the discounted OPD services provided by ChildHeart Foundation in Punjab. The family visited Child Heart Foundation and was screened in the Thursday OPD on 17th May 2018. Dr. Vikas Kohli – a renowned Paediatric Cardiologist examined Princy and she underwent Echocardiography Test.


After the screening Princy was diagnosed with Large ASD (Atrial Septal Defect) – a birth defect that causes a hole in the wall between the hearts upper chambers (Atria).
