I could not reach you until today.
I have been in the hospital for four days.
My back pain came back badly about 10 days ago, but I kept pushing myself, running around for Majd and the girls.
Four days ago, I went to the market to buy vegetables for my girls. I never made it home.
The pain became unbearable, went down into my thigh, and I could barely stand. People took me to Al-Maamadani Hospital.
The doctors examined me, ran tests and scans, monitored my condition and nerves, and treated the pain. They found a severe worsening of my back problem with nerve compression. There was no MRI, so they had to do an emergency exploratory surgery.
I am still here. My back and thigh still hurt terribly. I am completely exhausted. My head feels like it will explode.
Some of the money you donated was still with us. We used it for the hospital, surgery, tests and medicines.
I now owe the hospital 1,500 shekels ($494), and we have to pay it immediately. We have nothing extra left.
My girls are crying. Our neighbor checks on them every few hours because I cannot be there.
And Majd needs $390 tomorrow Saturday for another week of hospital treatment and physiotherapy. His leg is finally moving again.
I am asking you from this hospital bed: please help us.
I am exhausted. I am in pain. I cannot carry all of this alone anymore.
Please, if you can donate, help us now.
If you cannot, please share us.
Please don't leave us alone.
