The question above has been through the mind of Chefi, an extremely close friend of my family, ย since a week ago, when his wife Aida died after giving birth due to a postpartum bleeding that led into a postpartum infection. He found himself with a little babygirl to raise all by himself. Aida, his late wife,ย already knew there would be complications during the whole birth process, since her frail complexion, diabetes and chronic anemia didnโt make things easier. She wanted to go on until the end, admitting to be unable to live a life in which she knew she was the reason of her firstbornโs death. Chefi accepted her decision, unable to go against her beliefs, which he accepted as his own after converting to islam to get the blessing of his in-laws, habitants of El-Aaiรบn, Sahara.ย Nearly 48h after Aida had the baby,ย the lacerations on her genital area got infected, as well as the interior of her uterus, cause her inmense pain, swelling, drowsiness and a fever that reachedย 40ยบC (104ยบF). She was given antibiotics and fed intravenously, but her body was too spent, too weak, too gone. She passed away in her sleep, leaving Chefi alone with the proof of their love.ย He named her Aisha, which meansย alive. She was alive and well, her cheeks rosy, her eyes as hipnotizing as her motherโs.
Chefi, although proud of her wifeโs efforts, is now in the hands of depression and without resources, highly needed when it comes to firstborns. Know how to help him under the cut:ย

As nobody has donated in 24h and weโre growing quite desperate, after a deep research I have decided to create a file in which everyone can see the (quite high) prices of the products the baby needs, that way being clear about what that money is gonna be invested in. Youโre free to share the link of the document on your social media, just like this post. Please help us, weโre begging you at this point.

update โ ย Some donators already know, but I thought I would share this with everyone: the baby has acute asthma and weโre having a really hard time because of it. ย
Aisha is just a month old but around a week ago she started wheezing and her breathing was too fast, even in her sleep. Since sheโs not legally registered in our country yet, we had to take her to the ER without a health care card and the doctor, luckily, pretended not to see and attended us anyways. After denying that it was a cold or allergies, he diagnosed her with asthma. That same night, she had an acute asthma attack and we had to run to the nearest pharmacy to get an inhaler. As mentioned beforehand, she does not have a health care card, so we had to spend over 100โฌ on a Serevent inhaler cause we didnโt have a health insurance to cover up the damage. Those were our funds for this month, for groceries and baby formula, which, by clicking on the link shared on our last update, you can see how annoyingly expensive it is.
We also had to buy some Aerius syrup for 15โฌ, some Pulmicort for 57โฌย and a new set of hypoallergenic sheets and blankets (since the doctor said they help avoid dusting) for 85โฌ on a specialized shop.ย Those three items were bought with part of my college scholarship since the father of the baby is absolutely penniless.ย
The problem is, the baby and her father live in a very small apartment by the beach that has little to no ventilation, making her efforts to breathe even more tedious. After talking to a company that sells gas tanks to treat asthmatics, they gave us a budget for a big gas tank so the baby could use on a daily basis. The thing is, we donโt have 1275โฌ for the tank, not even 15โฌ for the nasal cannula, which would avoid to cover the whole babyโs face with a mask, making her a bit more comfortable with her treatment. Weโre flat broke since I canโt spend any more funds from my scholarship: I still need the money to pay for my daily expenses as a college student.ย
All of this, of course, remembering that the shipping of the so-needed gas tank would be 330โฌ,ย because itโs not exactly a light item. It would take a week to arrive once purchased.ย
At this point weโre literally begging for help. Chefi hasnโt moved on, heโs still on Prozac to help him cope with depression, jobless and without a single cent on his wallet. And before you ask: yes, Iโm paying for his anti-depressants too. His in-laws, the parents of Aida, donโt wanna help us either, they have even stopped caring about the baby since sheโsย โthe reason they donโt have their daughter anymoreโ. They know a 18-year-old is feeding a grown man and they honestly donโt care. They donโt answer to messages and even blocked Chefi once.ย
If you have relatives, friends, teachers or literally anyone that cares, please help us. You donโt have to be a Muslim to help, just anyone with good intentions. Donโt feel bad if you can donate only 1$, that dollar alone would push us a bit closer to our goal.
Thanks from the bottom of our hearts.
