Fatemah – A grieving mother

This tragic short story is about Fatemah, a mother who lost her only child just broke our heart.

She told us, “My son died 7 months ago. He was my only child and companion. My wish is to visit his grave to feel close to where his body lies. However, my legs can’t take me there as I suffer of severe knee problems and I can’t afford to buy a wheelchair. I dream to have the chance to sit by his grave one day, until then my heart will remain broken.”

Thanks to a number of generous donations, we were able to buy a wheelchair for her. She cried as we arrived with her new wheelchair and told her it was time for her to visit her son. She asked us to thank you all for granting her the ability to make her dream come true.
