We are pleased to share with you a success story of a micro-surgery that our little girl Joudi went through, after she was suffering from a daily-growing facial vascular tumor. Before Joudi arrived at the Idleb Specialized Surgical Hospital, she had returned from Turkey, where she had crossed the border looking for treatment. The doctors there had fears that the little girl could be subjected to severe bleeding and that made them conservative, but we accepted the challenge after a series of successes in the field of vascular, reconstructive and plastic surgeries. Now, Joudi is the third child to undergo a surgery for the management of a facial tumor, and before that, the children Basem and Aisha had similar surgeries and passed it with success, satisfaction and acceptance.
What is worse than the pain is that when it is visible, and when it is the first thing others see in you before they even see you. It is even worse when others remember it before you, and introduce you through referring to it in school, in the neighborhood, and perhaps at home.
Despite the difficult and critical moments that the surgical team, including the vascular, maxillofacial, reconstructive and cosmetic doctors, experienced along with the parents’ concern, the medical team succeeded in overcoming the challenge and stopping the vascular bleeding after removing the tumor and then grafting and restoring the lost space.
Today, Joudi lives a happy life, looks at the mirror with more satisfaction and follows up with her family the cosmetic treatment to make her way to the future with confidence and joy, so that difficult days become a thing of the past and bright days are just what awaits her.
Thanks to your continued support, we have performed a quarter million surgeries over a decade of bitter war, and today we are moving on adding quality to quantity, performing the world's most accurate surgical operations for the most vulnerable patients in the most dangerous areas of active and long-term war. We believe that you share this vision, so we call upon you again to continue to relieve pain and help them stop coping with it.
