🗣️ A Mother's Heartbreaking Plea
My name is Carmel Rashwan, and I am 40 years old.
The war took almost everything from me.
Our home was bombed, leaving it completely destroyed. Today, I live among its ruins. There is no proper roof above us, no secure walls around us, and nothing to protect us from the scorching summer heat or the freezing winter cold.
But losing our home was not the greatest tragedy.
💔 I lost three of my beloved daughters during the war.
Only one daughter survived.
Every day, I try to comfort her while carrying my own unbearable grief. She is struggling with the trauma of losing her sisters and needs love, stability, and care more than ever.
💬 "No mother should ever have to bury her children. Yet despite my grief, I must stay strong for the daughter who still needs me."
👨👩👧 Our Family
👩 Carmel Rashwan (40) — Mother struggling to care for her family after unimaginable loss.
👧 My surviving daughter — Living with the emotional trauma of losing her three sisters and in need of continued care and support.
🎗️ My daughter with cancer — Requires ongoing medical treatment, medication, and specialized care that we cannot afford.
👵 An elderly family member (80) — Dependent on my care.
👴 Another elderly family member (80) — Also relies entirely on me for daily care and support.
💔 A Home Reduced to Rubble
🏚️ Our home was destroyed during the war.
Today, we remain among the ruins with almost no protection from the weather.
We face every day without proper shelter, struggling against heat, cold, and constant uncertainty.
🎗️ Caring for a Daughter Fighting Cancer
One of my greatest fears is not being able to provide the treatment my daughter desperately needs.
She is battling cancer and requires:
💊 Ongoing medication
🏥 Medical treatment
🥗 Proper nutrition
❤️ Specialized care
Without help, providing these necessities has become nearly impossible.
🆘 What Your Support Can Provide
Your generosity can help us secure:
🏥 Medical treatment and medication for my daughter with cancer.
🍞 Food and clean drinking water.
🏠 Safer shelter and essential living supplies.
💊 Medicine and healthcare for our family.
👵 Daily care and necessities for the two elderly people who depend on me.
❤️ Emotional stability and hope for my surviving daughter.
🤍 A Mother's Hope
I cannot bring back the daughters I lost.
But I can continue fighting for the daughter who survived.
I can continue caring for my sick child and the elderly people who depend on me.
Every donation, no matter how small, gives my family another chance to survive with dignity.

Carmel Rashwan & Family
