i just read this on the Saudi electronic newspaper 'sabaq''.
It's about the 50 year old widow Um Ibrahim. Um Ibrahim can not move in her house or even go to the bathroom without the help of her two daughters due to her 250 Kg weight. She is a diabetic lady who suffered from a stroke in her lungs after the death of her husband. Her weights has stopped her from moving and eating normally and her poverty has stopped her from having the necessary medication.
she lives with her two divorced daughters and their five children in an old house which she can not pay the rent for ,a kind man has paid half the rent , she has no furniture and nothing to help them with the cold and the hot weathers.
i know that there are a lot to discuss about the way this lady lives in a rich country but this is not what this post about, it's about helping this lady. So if you are in Saudi Arabia and can help, please contact the editor or call the following number :-
(0569756611).
here is the link of the story -in Arabic- :-

BalasHapusAmen and may there is someone out there who can read this and help. life is tough on women and poor people .
BalasHapusThanks Wafa'. You are so kind.
BalasHapusI'll do my best to help this poor lady. It seems that she needs close observation and much effort and money. I'll try to relay her case to those whom I know they could do something to alleviate her suffering.
Thanks again for your true human sense and I wish you a very happy new year.
