3 Donors Cover 53,620 Dirhams for “Layla’s” Treatment

In a remarkable humanitarian initiative, three donors have covered 53,620 dirhams of the rehabilitation and medical treatment costs for “Layla,” who has suffered from paralysis in her lower limbs since birth due to a lack of oxygen during delivery. This noble gesture has provided hope to Layla’s family amidst the difficult circumstances they face, highlighting the spirit of solidarity and social support within the community.

Details of Layla’s Required Treatment

Layla needs a series of physical therapy and rehabilitation sessions, along with a respirator and a medical wheelchair to assist her mobility. A medical report from a specialized center in Ajman indicated that the total cost of treatment amounts to 53,620 dirhams, a significant sum given Layla’s family’s limited financial resources.

Community Support and Charitable Initiatives

Through coordination between the “Hotline” and the Department of Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities in Dubai, the donations were directed to the relevant authorities to ensure prompt and effective treatment. Layla’s father, known as “Abu Layla,” expressed his gratitude and was deeply touched by the donors’ support, stating, “This donation is not surprising from the people of this country, who are known for their solidarity with humanitarian cases and their willingness to help those in need.”

Layla and Her Family’s Struggle

Layla, who is 26 years old, suffers from complications resulting from a lack of oxygen at birth, leading to paralysis and brain atrophy. After her birth, she was admitted to the intensive care unit, where she spent an entire month. Since then, her family has been striving to provide the necessary treatment and support.

Layla’s father explained that he had been covering the cost of therapy sessions from his salary, but after losing his job, the family became reliant on his wife’s income, which is insufficient to meet their needs. As their difficulties increased, they appealed to benevolent individuals for assistance in providing appropriate treatment for their daughter. Thanks to the donors, they were able to secure the support she needs.

Layla’s humanitarian case represents a vivid example of the challenges faced by many families, and the spirit of giving demonstrated by the donors reflects the community’s cohesion in the UAE, reinforcing the value of charitable work.
