As per the international guidelines, the foundation will accept a referral only when it is certified by a medical professional that the child referred to us was suffering from a life threatening illness. Whether a particular illness is considered life threatening or not, is left completely at the discretion of the doctor treating the child. There is a list of life threatening illnesses. This list is to be used only as a guide.

A referral is essential to begin the wish granting process. -
Referrals are accepted from medical professionals attached to an institution and
from the institutions that provides care and support
to such medical emergency situations. -

the family to contact the Foundation. -
A referral will include a confirmation from the treating doctor about the
medical condition of the child referred. He/ she should certify
