The Fighter Girl of Agra: How 11 Year Old Livaya Conquered Pancreatitis


Livaya’s struggle began suddenly during a math period at school, where she began vomiting repeatedly. Initially, doctors in her small town were dismissive, suggesting it was a one-time inflammation or caused by junk food. However, a second trigger, a minor physical punch in the stomach by a friend during play led to a severe relapse.

The conventional medical response left the family terrified. One doctor in Jaipur questioned if the 11-year-old was an alcoholic due to her high Amylase and Lipase levels. Another senior specialist labeled her a “hopeless case,” stating she would have to live with the pain, that stones would form, and that no permanent treatment existed. Trapped in a cycle of painful IV drips and hospital stays that “tortured” her hands, Livaya’s mother turned to spiritual faith and intensive research to find an alternative.

The Padaav Pivot: A Search for a “Root” Cure

During a desperate search for the “best treatment for pancreatitis,” Livaya’s mother discovered Padaav. Despite her husband’s initial skepticism regarding Ayurvedic treatment being “too slow,” the family was moved by testimonials from other parents whose children had recovered.

Upon meeting Vaidya Shikha Prakash, the family finally received a definitive “Yes” to the question of whether Livaya could be cured. Shikha Prakash provided a positive prognosis, explaining that because they had arrived at the right time—before duct dilatation or stone formation—the bulky pancreas could return to its normal size by addressing the root cause.

The Recovery: Discipline, Freshness, and Motherly Devotion

The recovery at Padaav involved a 21-day inpatient phase to reset Livaya’s biological habits, followed by a strict one-year regimen.

  • The “Mother’s Promise”: Livaya’s mother vowed to eat exactly what her daughter ate for one year to provide emotional support.

  • Rigorous Food Standards: The family stopped using “stale” or refrigerated food. Everything, from paneer to chutney, was made fresh for every meal.

  • Sourcing Purity: They used milk from their own cow and sourced organic vegetables and cold-pressed oils.

  • Creative Nutrition: To keep a child engaged with a restricted diet, her mother innovated recipes such as raw banana stuffing (rich in gut-friendly starches) and red bell pepper “chutney” to replace prohibited ingredients like tomatoes.

The Outcome: Reclaiming a Long and Healthy Life

Today, Livaya is a “Fighter Girl” who has reclaimed her childhood. Five days into her stay at Padaav, she already felt a surge of energy and a desire to “run everywhere”. Now healthy and asymptomatic, she has developed the maturity to say “no” to unhealthy foods at birthday parties, understanding that her healthy lifestyle will likely grant her a longer, better life than those consuming processed snacks.

The Mother’s Message: “Medicine is 30%, but food and mindset are 70%. You must be positive because your energy passes through your child. Don’t rely on Google Maharaj for this disease; seek root-cause treatment immediately”.

Experience at Padaav

Livaya describes Padaav not as a hospital, but as a place of happiness where she could play in the garden and feel her stomach “feel good” again. The treatment moved beyond masking pain with patches to a total lifestyle overhaul that restored her spirit and body.
