Party!!

I am trying so hard not to fall apart, but I am scared. Truly scared. In just 4 days, we need to raise $658 for the medication my mother and father depend on. Every night I lie awake thinking about them, wondering what will happen if we cannot get the treatment they need in time.💔

My parents are growing older, and their health is fragile. When I look at them, I don’t see numbers or fundraising goals . I see the two people who gave me everything they had. The people who stayed awake when I was sick, who sacrificed their comfort for mine, who loved me unconditionally every day of my life. Now they need help, and I feel helpless watching them wait for medication that I cannot afford.😔💔

I am not asking for luxury, comfort, or anything extra. I am only asking for a chance to protect my mother and father. A chance to keep them safe. A chance to hear their voices, see their smiles, and have more time with them.

Please, if you can spare even a few dollars, help us. If enough people give a little, we can reach this goal together. We have only 4 days left, and every donation could make a real difference in my parents’ lives. From a child who is terrified of losing the people they love most, thank you for reading, sharing, and caring.🙏😔

Urgent Appeal for My Father’s Life 💔

I am begging you from the bottom of my heart, please do not scroll past my father’s suffering.

Yesterday, my father was seriously injured in the head after a nearby bombardment. The injury is severe, and his condition is getting worse. Doctors have told us that he urgently needs surgery as soon as possible to prevent further deterioration and potentially save his life.

We are devastated and completely unable to afford the cost of the operation. The surgery costs $1,200, and every moment we wait puts my father at greater risk.

Please, I am pleading with you. If you can donate, no matter how small the amount, you could help save my father’s life. If you cannot donate, please share this appeal with others. Every share may reach someone who can help.

I cannot bear the thought of losing my father because we could not gather the money for his treatment in time. Watching him suffer while feeling helpless is a pain I cannot describe.

Please, help us give him a chance to survive and recover.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Deadline 31 May

$491 is all that stands between my sister and the medicine that could keep her alive. Her condition has become terrifyingly worse, and every moment in the ICU feels like we are waiting to lose her. I cannot describe the pain of watching my sister suffer, weak and exhausted after her surgery, while we are unable to afford the treatment she desperately needs to survive.💔

I begged for help everywhere until my heart and soul became exhausted. I cried, pleaded, reposted, and hoped someone would care enough to save her, but the donations barely come while my sister is slowly fading in front of my eyes. Please, don’t let her die because we are poor and helpless. Imagine if it was your sister fighting between life and death while you stood there unable to save her.😔

We urgently need the remaining $491 before it becomes too late. Even the smallest donation could help save my sister’s life and stop this nightmare from taking her away from us forever.🙏😔💔
