3 Brothers Are Losing Their Senses: One by One

Moataem used to walk confidently through his school corridors. Now, the 10-year-old asks his teacher for permission to use the bathroom and returns to a different classroom, unable to remember where he belongs. And when his father calls his name, sometimes Moataem doesn't respond. Not because he's ignoring him, but because he can no longer hear it.

His 7-year-old brother Azzam lies completely bedridden in a hospital ward, unable to move. It is something that's coming for the other 2. Little Mueataz, just 2 years old, still looks healthy. But the same cruel disease is already beginning its work inside him. 2 years ago, these 3 brothers from Yemen were perfectly normal. They spoke, played, went to amusement parks with their parents. Life was ordinary and beautiful.

Then came the diagnosis: Cerebral Leukodystrophy. A condition that takes senses one by one. First, memory fades. Then hearing dims. Vision blurs. The body stops responding. Until the child you knew becomes unreachable, trapped in a shell that no longer connects them to the world.

“It is difficult to watch your child lose their senses one by one while you can do nothing,” their father, Ghamdan Abdulwahab Mohammed says. He works in a small shop, earning a humble income each month. His wife cares for their 3 sons and their 14-year-old daughter. They left Yemen, travelled to India, seeking the one treatment that could save their boys: Bone Marrow Transplant.

The father is a matching donor. He's ready. The doctors at Citizen Hospital are ready. But without funds, the surgeries cannot begin. “I am ready to sacrifice my body piece by piece so my children can recover,” he says. “But what will happen if the treatment stops midway due to lack of funds?” His worst fear is watching Moataem lose his last bits of hearing and memory. Watching Azzam trapped in his unmoving body. Watching little Mueataz follow the same path his brothers have walked.

3 lives. One father willing to give everything. One chance to stop this. Your donation can give them their senses, their movement, and their future. Don't let them disappear while help was possible!

This campaign for a single patient can be converted into a multi-patient campaign, subject to the performance of this campaign. Once the funding requirement of a specific patient is met, multiple other beneficiaries can be helped through Impact Guru.

Should I wait for an organ donor before starting a fundraiser?

You need not wait for donor or have the organ ready. We actually suggest you start a fundraiser as soon as you can so that you are ready with the acquired funds and can get the surgery done immediately when you do receive an organ.

How can I track the impact of my donation?

Generally, most campaigners are reminded to leave updates on their fundraiser regarding the progress of their cause, whether it’s a nonprofit project or the health of a patient. You will get an email every time an update is posted. Alternately, you can use the "Contact campaigner" option on the fundraiser page to directly get in touch with the campaigner and understand how your donation benefited them.

Once the requirement of this patient will be met, any remaining funds will ultimately go towards helping other needy patients in line with Impact Guru's mission of helping save as many lives as possible.

Whose account will the funds be transferred to?

For all medical fundraisers, the funds will be directly transferred to the hospital’s account. Only in a few cases, based on Impact Guru’s discretion, the funds might be transferred to the campaigner or the patient’s account for postoperative or at home expenses.

In cases, where the funding requirement of the patient changes due to factors such as death, change of treatment plan on advice of hospital, delay in treatment, medical complications, Impact Guru utilizes the funds to help similar patients with the mission of helping save as many lives as possible.

Does Impact Guru help in promoting campaigns?

90%+ of Impact Guru’s campaigns raise funds leveraging our do-it-yourself fundraising platform.

The Accelerate initiative of Impact Guru caters primarily towards those individuals who are unable to create or manage their own fundraiser due to lack of education, access to smartphones, or social networks for fundraising support. Impact Guru provides fundraising support in such cases by maximizing outreach, leveraging all fundraising channels. In order to provide crucial life saving support to such patients, Impact Guru charges marketing cost paid to such third parties and its regular platform and payment gateway fees. Impact Guru's constant endeavour is to reduce such outreach costs to maximize social impact of every contribution.

Who should I contact if I have more questions?

If you have more questions or need assistance to start a fundraiser, you can send us an email at [email protected]

What is the verification process for fundraiser & fund transfer approval?

We strive to obtain comprehensive documentation related to the patient's medical care and expenses. We communicate with the patient / campaigner / hospital(s) and/or medical institutions and may verify & collect all documents related to the patient, including but not limited to itemized bills, medical certificate / estimate, admission report, discharge summary, medical records, and expense documents.

We reserve the right to conduct physical visits and/or photo/ video verification as deemed necessary. Such verification measures may apply not only to patients but also to vendors, medical institutions, and other relevant parties, as applicable.
