Thanks to all your kindness , compassion and noble gesture of benevolence which made it possible to raise the original target of £20,000 (combined donations from just giving crowd funding , collections from friends in India and worldwide wired directly to Dr VS Senthil Kumar‘s wife’s account). Hence I have edited the target to £15,500 now.

Please see the original message below

Dr V S Senthil Kumar sadly died on 1 June 2019 RIP

He was a great doctor who has changed the life of so many patients who have suffered from neurological conditions. His contribution to NHS for the past 17 years has been immense. Sadly he was diagnosed with end stage cancer and died in hospice.

Senthil started his medical career in 1993 graduating from Madurai Medical College in India and was training in London as a Neurologist and was very passionate about it. His friends in UK, India and all over the world would like to crowd fund to support Senthil‘s family. He leaves behind his wife Raji and 2 boys Bala(15) and Sanjay(5)

Throughout his last few days Senthil has been very brave and cared for his specialty of Neurology and his patients even in the last few days of his life

He has been a much loved and respected friend and colleague and his mood always lifted when we reminisced about fond memories of Madurai Medical College.

Any help to his young family will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your donation and kindness so far.
