We are a couple from Lebanon, aged 30 and 35, reaching out with hope after enduring one hardship after another.

Last year, our rented home caught fire due to an electrical issue. In a matter of moments, we lost nearly everything we had worked for — our belongings, our savings, household essentials, and even beloved pets, including our dog and birds. The emotional and financial impact was devastating.

Since then, we have been trying to rebuild with very limited means. Half of the house still remains damaged and urgently requires repairs, including:

* rebuilding damaged sections
* installing an aluminum balcony cover
* repairing and replacing wooden doors
* repainting burned walls
* fixing broken and burned glass

To survive after the fire, we were forced to sell our car to cover basic living expenses and replace only the most essential items such as clothes, towels, a small sofa, and basic electrical appliances.

Just as we were trying to recover, another crisis struck.

Two months ago, my husband was admitted to the ICU with severe acute pancreatitis, dangerously high blood sugar, high triglycerides, and severe inflammation. We had to urgently raise money just to afford admission to a government hospital. After 10 difficult days in the hospital, he was discharged, but the medical journey is far from over.

He now requires:

* repeated scans and medical tests
* follow-up doctor visits
* insulin treatment
* medications
* a strict medical diet

At this point, we are no longer able to afford these essential medical needs.

My husband works 12 hours a day for only $500 per month, and this month I lost my job due to the war-related situation affecting my company.

We are now struggling to afford:

* rent
* electricity bills
* food
* medication
* dog food for our two dogs

At the moment, we are feeding our dogs rice because we can no longer afford pet food.

We have also started relying on food donations from a local NGO and have accumulated debt at our local market just to survive.

We are now due for 2 month’s rent, with electricity bills continuing to pile up.

To make things even harder, we must move out of this house by June because the owner needs it back. Before leaving, we are also required to repair the damaged property and pay all due rent.

We do not have family support or a support system to rely on. This fundraiser is our last hope to help us survive this period, settle urgent medical and living expenses, and give us a chance to begin again.

Goal: $3,000

The funds will be used for:

* doctor bills
* medical tests and repeated scans
* insulin and medication
* rent and electricity
* food and daily essentials
* dog food
* house repair and rebuilding costs

We have supporting invoices, prescriptions, medical reports, and photos available.

Any donation, no matter how small, will make a real difference.

If you are unable to donate, please share this fundraiser and keep us in your prayers.

Thank you for giving us hope.
