Heba is my dear friend, and we met through a divorce group that brought us both comfort and support during a tough time. Since then, she’s become a constant source of kindness and strength—not just for me, but for everyone around her. Heba is the kind of person who always shows up, always helps, and somehow still apologizes for being so generous. Her warmth and love for life are felt by everyone who knows her, and her family’s love extends to all of us.

Right now, Heba is facing one of the biggest challenges of her life: she needs a lung transplant. The hospital bills are overwhelming, and the journey ahead is long and uncertain. Despite everything, Heba continues to inspire those around her with her courage and positivity. She’s always been there for others, and now it’s our turn to be there for her.

I was going to wait for my friend Beth to write this story, but the truth is, Heba deserves all the support we can give her, right now. If you’re able to help, your kindness will go directly toward her hospital bills and recovery. Thank you for reading, for caring, and for being part of Heba’s community. Every bit of support means the world to her and to all of us who love her.
