Help My Son Receive Urgent Heart Surgery

My name is Fadl Mahmoud Abdul Ghafour Maqat, and I am a father of seven children. I am raising funds to help my beloved son receive the urgent medical treatment he needs for a severe chronic heart condition.

My son has been diagnosed with a serious heart condition and, according to his medical needs, requires open-heart surgery and specialized care. As his father, it is heartbreaking to see my child facing such a serious health challenge while knowing that the treatment he needs is beyond what our family can afford.

Our family lives in Al-Atatra, Beit Lahia, in the northern Gaza Strip. Due to the current humanitarian situation, access to medical care and specialized treatment is extremely difficult. We are seeking assistance to help my son access the appropriate medical treatment, including the possibility of receiving care outside Gaza if necessary and medically approved.

The funds raised through this campaign will be used for expenses related to my son's medical care, including surgery, hospital treatment, medical examinations, transportation, travel or medical transfer if required, accommodation during treatment, and other necessary healthcare-related costs. The exact expenses will depend on his medical needs and the treatment arrangements available to him.

Our initial fundraising goal is **$20,000 USD** to help cover the cost of his surgery and begin the process of obtaining the specialized medical care he needs. Additional expenses may be required for medical transfer, travel, hospitalization, and follow-up treatment.

As a family, we are unable to meet these costs on our own. That is why we are reaching out to kind and compassionate people who may be able to support us during this difficult time.

If you are able to contribute, any amount—no matter how small—will help us move closer to getting my son the care he needs. If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser with others can also make a meaningful difference.

We are grateful for every person who takes the time to read our story, share our campaign, or offer support. Your kindness and generosity can help our family access the medical care our son urgently needs.

Thank you for standing with us and for helping us seek hope for our son and our family.
