Help us save my father
Hello, I am Sarah Sarkis, the daughter of Mr. Abboud Sarkis who was admitted on the morning of 29/12/2023 to LAU medical center, St John's hospital, jounieh and has been lying in the ICU bed ever since. He was diagnosed with severe pneumonia that required intubation which he miraculously survived given the comorbidities he has. During the recovery or weaning phase, he caught another lung infection due to an immunodeficiency. The second infection necessitated another intubation in less than one month and several rounds of dialysis as his kidneys condition worsened under the effect of the infections and the intubation and extubation process. Last week, his platelets count started dropping for no specific reason, hence a bone marrow aspiration or biopsy was carried out by Dr. Anwar Shayya to find the leading cause. My father is surrounded by the ICU doctors Dr. Chalouhi and Dr. Iskandar, the best nephrologist, Dr. Zeina Meshref and the medical and psychological support provided by the hospital personnel is unprecedented, yet the medical bills are spiking as his health keeps failing him whenever we start believing that he is getting better. My family managed to pay an amount of 24,000$ out of the total bills amount and the modest NSSF coverage barely reimburses 10% of the hospital fees. Therefore, the family decided to start this fundraising campaign in order to help my father continue his treatment and hopefully return to his home and family. All details concerning my father's case including copies of paid bills and medical reports are available upon demand and can be provided if you contact us on 03/467343. The people who got to know my father including all the students he taught over his 45 years in the educational field know what a wonderful teacher and a dedicated man he is.

Keep the Heart Beating

This beat belongs to Wajih Sarieddine, a husband, father of three, and a man whose smile radiates warmth like the Mediterranean sun. But Wajih's light is dimming, overshadowed by a relentless heart condition that whispers fear and threatens to silence his laughter forever. His only hope, a whisper of possibility woven into metal and silicon, whispers its name: LVAD-HeartMate 3. This marvel of technology, a bridge between life and oblivion, carries a price tag as harsh as the desert wind - $140,000. A sum that stands between Wajih's future and the abyss, a sum the family, with insurance offering a mere drop in the bucket, Imagine Wajih, the coach urging his kids on, the first to rise when help is needed, the man who makes every stranger feel like family. Imagine that laughter silenced, that hand no longer reaching out, that light extinguished. We cannot. Will not. With each beat of his faltering heart, urgency drums a tattoo against our chests. Time is not a luxury we have. Each sunrise a gamble, each sunset a potential farewell. That's why we reach out to you, to the kindness that echoes across oceans and continents, to the hearts that resonate with the rhythm of humanity. Every dollar you contribute is a note in Wajih's symphony of life, a chord of hope strummed against the strings of fate. It's the chance to see his children grow, hold his wife's hand with renewed strength, and watch the sun paint the sky with a palette of tomorrows. Don't wait for the silence. Donate now. Be the melody that lifts Wajih's heart, the harmony that drowns out the whispers of fear. Together, we can rewrite this story, turn fear into hope, and make the impossible beat of resilience echo through the valleys of his future. From the depths of our gratitude, thank you. Let your generosity be the rhythm that keeps Wajih's heart dancing, one beat at a time.
