My name is Adiba, and I never imagined I would have to write these words.

In January 2026, our family suffered an unimaginable loss. We said goodbye to my beloved son after his courageous battle with leukemia. He fought with incredible strength and received specialized treatment, but despite every effort, we lost him.

We are still grieving his loss. But before we could even begin to heal, our family was faced with another devastating battle.

My beautiful daughter is only 16 years old and is now fighting relapsed leukemia.

She has faced more hardship than any child should ever have to endure. She lost her father when she was just a baby, yet she grew into a kind, compassionate, resilient, and hopeful young woman who continues to fight with extraordinary courage.

Our family has been deeply affected by childhood cancer. While we mourn my son every day, we are also grateful that her youngest brother bravely fought cancer and is now a survivor. His recovery reminds us that miracles are possible—and we hold onto that hope for my daughter.

After months of treatment, our greatest fear became reality: her leukemia has returned.

According to her medical team, she has experienced a bone marrow relapse and urgently needs intensive chemotherapy, followed by an allogeneic bone marrow (stem cell) transplant—the treatment her doctors believe offers her the best chance of survival.

Time is critical.

She needs to achieve remission before she can proceed to transplant. The costs of chemotherapy, specialized medications, hospital care, laboratory tests, transplant preparation, donor-related expenses, and the transplant itself are far beyond what our family can afford.

As a mother, I cannot put into words what it feels like to watch another one of my children fight cancer after losing my son.

I wake up every day with one prayer:

Please let me save my daughter.

Today, I am humbly asking for your help.

Every donation, no matter how small, can help bring my daughter closer to the treatment she urgently needs. If you are unable to donate, please share her story with your family, friends, colleagues, and community. A single share could reach someone who can make a life-changing difference.

Your generosity can help give my daughter the chance to continue her fight, to grow up, to dream, and to have the future she deserves.

We have already lost one child to leukemia.

We are doing everything in our power not to lose another.

With your help, my daughter still has hope.

Thank you for standing beside our family during the darkest chapter of our lives. Your kindness, prayers, generosity, and compassion mean more to us than words can ever express.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Adiba

A Grateful Mother
