Situated at the foot of the Himalayas on the bank of the holy Ganga River near Rishikesh, India, Ganga Prem Hospice is a spiritually-oriented, non-profit hospice for terminally ill
cancer patients. It provides material support, medical care, as well as emotional and spiritual comfort for individuals and their loved ones as they are going through pain and suffering from life-threatening illnesses.
Anil Rana (m):
My mother was struck with cervical cancer in May 2006. During the suffering, she was refused
by various places, as there was no possibility for her to recover. Then we came across Ganga Prem Hospice and this institution carried out all treatment.
When we got in touch with this institution, they did everything for us. The institution took care of the expenses for fruits, vegetables, groceries, medicines, everything for my mother.
And the rent for the house which is a thousand rupees per month; that too, the institution paid. As we do not have anybody, no relative, no other family, we are alone in this world.
There is no income. I am frightened to even think what would have happened if the institute did not help us. I am grateful to God, I thank God enormously. Thanks to the institute that they provided the complete treatment for my mother. They spent money and managed everything very properly.
