What began as a casual decision to bunk a class during engineering college days in Bengaluru eventually turned into a life-changing moment for Dilip K., a 27-year-old IT professional from Kadahalli in Kolar district.
Ahead of World Thalassaemia Day, Mr. Dilip on Thursday (May 7) met 12-year-old Sameeksha for the first time — the young girl whose life he helped save through stem cell donation. Until Thursday, the two were connected only through a genetic match identified during the donor search process.
