Uncle Ghaleb suffers from severe back pain that radiates to his leg, preventing him from sitting or moving. It has been revealed that he has a slipped disc pressing intensely on his spinal cord, and he urgently needs surgery. His condition is rapidly deteriorating, and he has recently entered the stage of “foot drop,” which means that any delay in treatment will only worsen his suffering and increase the risk of losing his ability to walk.
Uncle Ghaleb lives with his wife and two children with special needs in a small shelter roofed with a piece of tarp. He was displaced six years ago after his home was completely destroyed, and he hasn’t been able to return to his village due to the landmines and remnants of war that fill the area.
Today, Uncle Ghaleb stands helpless—his poverty and difficult circumstances prevent him from affording the cost of treatment. All he has left is hope in your compassionate hearts.
