Leo also mentioned that this organ transplant took place after 98 painful dialysis sessions, which was very saddening for the family. Leo claimed that the family spent less than Rs. 15,000 on the entire treatment, with the insurance company covering 99.9% of the cost. His parents are the oldest kidney donors and recipients at the Kochi hospital, both being close to 70 years old.
