Help Abdi: Father's Fight Against Brainstem Glioma

In the spirit of hope and resilience, we share the story of Abdul Hayee. Abdul, a devoted father to Shaheer and Minal, has been bravely battling a life-threatening mid-brain tumor since his diagnosis in 2021. This challenge came on the heels of losing his garment business to the pandemic and his declining health, leaving his family in a precarious situation.

In Pakistan, Abdul's options for advanced medical treatment are limited, and his condition has rapidly worsened. Despite these dire circumstances, his resolve to fight for his life and be there for his children remains unshaken. The love for his family drives him, as he clings to the dream of a future together.

A glimmer of hope has emerged in this difficult journey. Abdul has secured an opportunity for specialized treatment at Johns Hopkins Hospital. This could be the lifeline Abdul needs, but it comes with a significant financial challenge. We are reaching out to raise $30,000 to cover the costs of his medical treatment, travel, and accommodation. This fund is critical for Abdul's journey towards recovery and for ensuring that Shaheer and Minal do not have to face a future without their father.

We humbly ask for your support. Your contribution, regardless of its size, is a powerful act of kindness. It's more than a donation; it's a beacon of hope for Abdul and his children, a reminder that even in the toughest times, compassion prevails. Every dollar you contribute takes Abdul one step closer to the life-saving treatment he urgently needs.

We extend our heartfelt thanks for your generosity and solidarity. Your support during this critical time makes a profound difference in the lives of Abdul and his family.

With deepest gratitude,

Zaka Ahmed MD

A Friend of Abdul's Family
