Georges El Najjar Created this campaign
*Temple of Eternity: A Myth of Hope (هيكلٌ الأبديّة: أسطورة الأمل)* is not any book, it is the culmination of a clinical and poetic journey, born from a narrative analysis study of Michèle Hajal, Miss Lebanon 2016 third runner-up and clinical dietitian, whose public battle with cancer became a national symbol of grace, resilience, and luminous dignity.
This work transforms Michèle’s lived experience into a mythic framework of healing, where suffering is not silenced but transfigured into communal meaning. It bridges therapeutic writing, symbolic legacy, and clinical insight, offering readers a vessel of hope that transcends time and diagnosis.
Through this campaign, I seek to fund the printing, publishing, and small ceremonial signing event of the book, ensuring it reaches those who need it most: clinicians, survivors, youth, and bearers of silent strength.
