  "account": "Three-year-old Bazli has completed four of the ten chemotherapy cycles required to treat his acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-cell ALL). His young life, once filled with play and routine, has now been dominated by hospital stays, intravenous infusions, medication, and repeat treatments. Each successful cycle brings his parents relief but also reminds them of the arduous journey ahead. With six more cycles to complete, the family faces mounting financial challenges. Expenses such as transportation, accommodation, specialized nutrition, diapers, and daily care supplies are piling up, straining their limited resources. Sanrah Amil, Bazli's mother, has left her job to provide constant support, but the family now relies on a single income. VCare, a welfare NGO, has launched a fundraising campaign to raise RM13,800 to ease the burden on Bazli's parents. As of August 3, they have secured RM9,356, leaving RM9,356 still to be raised. The NGO is urging the public to contribute through Bank Simpanan Nasional account 0219 0411 0012 2711 using reference 'CASE 48'. Contributions will help cover practical needs and provide the family with greater stability during Bazli's remaining treatment. The family remains hopeful that treatment will restore Bazli to a life of normalcy, walking, playing, and growing up safely at home.",
