Help Bring Mohammed Afzal Taheri Home for Urgent Medical Care

Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters,

We’re writing this with heavy hearts on behalf of our dear friend Mahsa and her husband Bahador, a newlywed couple who should be celebrating the happiest time of their lives. Instead, they’re facing a heartbreaking emergency.

While in Cancun for their wedding, Mahsa’s beloved father, Mohammed Afzal Taheri, suffered a sudden and serious medical emergency. Though the local medical staff have done their best, it has become clear that he urgently needs to return to Canada for specialized care that can give him the best chance at recovery.

This is where we’re asking for your help.
The cost of medically repatriating someone in critical condition—especially with a necessary medical escort and life-support arrangements—is overwhelmingly high. The family needs at least $64,000 CDN to cover the cost of an aircraft but we’re also trying to help support the medical costs accrued here during his care in Mexico that were not covered by insurance. As friends and family who care deeply for Mahsa, Bahador, and their loved ones, we are doing everything we can to support them. But we can’t do it alone.

We’re humbly asking for your support to help bring Mahsa’s father home. Every dollar raised will go directly toward covering the costs of the medical flight, transportation, and care needed to safely return him to Canada.
No contribution is too small—every act of kindness counts. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this campaign with your network. Your support, in any form, means the world to this family during such a vulnerable time.

Let’s come together and help bring Mr. Taheri home, so he can receive the care he urgently needs and be surrounded by the love of his family.

With gratitude and love,
Friends and family of Mahsa & Bahador
