ALBAQIR ALAFIF MEDICAL TREATMENT FUND
Donation protected
Dear Friends,
We are writing to give you an update on Dr. Albaqir al-Afif's health situation. As many of you know, early this year, Dr. Albaqir discovered that he has Duodenal cancer. This advanced disease required him to seek immediate treatment in the United States, which has included eight doses of chemotherapy. Thankfully, Dr. Albaqir has responded well to the treatment and doctors have scheduled him for an operation to remove the tumor on 17 December 2018.
Dr. Albaqir has been in the forefront of the civil society movement in Sudan. His leadership of the Khatim Adlan Center for Enlightenment (KACE), since 2007, has been a shining example of selfless advocacy for human rights and justice in Sudan.
Dr. Albaqir operation will cost a significant amount of money. The cost of the treatment which included diagnosis, imagery, and chemotherapy has so far cost $92.000 (ninety two thousand dollars). The surgery will cost another $105,000. The total is therefore $197,000. Thankfully, Dr. Albaqir and his family have been able to raise $82,000 through personal savings and loans. However, there is a remaining balance of $115,000 that remains to be funded. We are hoping you can join us, by generously supporting this cause to help cover the remaining amount.
As manager of this campaign for the United States, I plan to withdraw the funds raised by the campaign and have them deposited into a dedicated account that I have opened in the Bank of America. The Title of this account is: Suliman A. Baldo, // ALBAQIR ALAFIF FUND ACCOUNT and its details are below for those who prefer to make direct bank transfers.
As to how the funds will get from the campaign to the ultimate beneficiary, I plan to issue Cashier's Checks from the bank account payable to John Hopkins Hospital and its affiliated facilities towards the payment of the estimated cost of the surgery. The hospital has invoiced Dr. Albaqir Alafif on 16 November 2018 for $104,910.00, being the estimated professional charges for John Hopkins medical providers and technicians, and estimated facility charges. The funds raised through this campaign will therefore be spent for the sole purpose of paying for Dr. Albaqir Alafif's surgery and post surgery hospitalization and rehabilitation costs.
We hope that you will stand with us and Dr. Albaqir to help him make a full and speedy recovery.
Sincerely,
Suliman Ali Baldo

نكتب لكم لنحيطكم علما بآخر تطورات الوضع الصحي للدكتور الباقر العفيف. وكما يعرف الكثيرون منكم فإن د. الباقر اكتشف في بداية هذا العام أنه مصاب بسرطان الاثنى عشر. واضطرته الحالة المتقدمة للمرض من بدء العلاج الفوري في الولايات المتحدة، والذي شمل ثماني جرعات من العلاج الكيميائي. ولحسن الحظ كانت استجابة د. الباقر للعلاج طيبة، وحدّد له الأطباء عملية لإزالة الورم ستُجرى يوم 17 ديسمبر 2018.
وكما تعلمون فإن د. الباقر ظل في طليعة حركة المجتمع المدني في السودان. وقيادته لمركز الخاتم عدلان للاستنارة والتنمية البشرية منذ عام 2007 نموذج ساطع ومشرق على الالتزام بالدفاع المتجرد عن حقوق الإنسان والعدالة في السودان.
وعملية د. الباقر ستكون ذات تكلفة كبيرة. فتكلفة العلاج حتى الآن والتي شملت التشخيص والصور والعلاج الكيميائي وصلت مبلغ 92000 دولار. وفوق ذلك فإن العملية ستكلف مبلغ 105,000 دولار. وبذا يصل الإجمالي مبلغ 197,000 دولار. ولحسن الحظ استطاع د. الباقر وأسرته تغطية مبلغ 82000 دولار من مدخراتهم وبالاقتراض. وهكذا يبقي مبلغ 115,000 دولار في انتظار السداد. وأملنا كبير أن تستطيعوا الانضمام لهذه الحملة بالمساندة والتبرع السخي لتغطية ما تبقّى من نفقات.
نتمنى أن تتضامنوا معنا ومع د. الباقر ليستردّ الشفاء العاجل وموفور الصحة.
