Help a Grieving Mother of Three After Losing Her Husband to Cancer
My name is Zan Asif, and I am reaching out on behalf of my beloved older sister, Fatima Asif-Mirza, a devoted mother of three young boys, who has just suffered an unimaginable loss. After a decade-long battle with colon cancer, her husband—her closest partner and the father of her children—has passed away.
A Love Story Cut Short by Cancer
My sister and her husband were newlyweds when they first faced his diagnosis. Over the past ten years, they fought together through three major surgeries, multiple rounds of chemotherapy, and moments of hope when the cancer went into remission—only for it to return. They built a beautiful life together despite this hardship, raising three wonderful boys in their home.
Why Your Support Means Everything Right Now
My sister is now a widowed mother to three young boys, each with their own medical needs. The combination of medical bills, childcare, and daily living expenses is overwhelming, especially as she grieves the loss of her husband. She has always been a strong, loving, and resilient mother, but no one should have to face this alone.
How Your Donation Will Help
Every dollar raised will go directly to:
- Covering outstanding medical bills from her husband’s treatment
- Supporting childcare so she can focus on adjusting to this new reality
- Covering medical expenses for her children
Please Help However You Can
Losing a husband and father is devastating enough—worrying about financial stability on top of that is unimaginable. If you’re able to donate, no matter the amount, it will make a world of difference for my sister and her children. If you can’t contribute financially, please consider sharing this fundraiser to help spread the word.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, prayers, and support during this time.
