Zahra

Family Situation

Zahra’s father is a kind and hardworking man who dedicated years to livestock farming to support his family. His efforts created a simple yet harmonious life filled with love and devotion. However, when Zahra was diagnosed and required a bone marrow transplant, their world was turned upside down. Life for the family became a journey filled with worry, fear, and uncertainty.

To cover the substantial costs of Zahra’s medical treatment, her father was forced to sell all his livestock—a decision that not only devastated the family’s finances but also brought his livelihood as a farmer to an abrupt end. Despite these hardships, Zahra’s parent remained steadfast, putting her health and well-being above all else.

For months, her parents have dedicated themselves entirely to Zahra’s care, her mother enduring sleepless nights and countless sacrifices. His unwavering love and commitment tell the story of a mother and father willing to give up everything for their child’s comfort and survival. To Zahra’s parents, nothing is more important than her health and happiness. Their resilience exemplifies the extraordinary strength and love of a parent navigating life’s most challenging trials.

Medical Condition

It has been 81 days since Zahra’s bone marrow transplant, and during this time, the side effects have caused significant changes. Our little girl’s beautiful hair has fallen out, and she no longer has the energy to play or engage in the activities she once loved. Severe gastrointestinal issues add to her struggles, as she faces new pains each day.

For us, this journey has meant enduring endless hardships, with patience as our only option. One of the most pressing challenges during her treatment has been the ongoing procurement of essential medications, which has placed an enormous financial burden on the family. These costs have strained their lives to the point where even basic daily needs are difficult to meet. Despite these overwhelming difficulties, her parents remain unwavering by her side, holding onto the hope that this arduous journey will eventually lead to brighter and healthier days.
