“Naya’s tragedy began six months after she was born. Initially, there was no clear diagnosis of the disease due to delays in testing for several months due to the lack of a sweat test kit. For two months,the little girl suffered from severe pneumonia, which required hospitalization more than 8 times in two months. A sweat test was performed and the case was diagnosed with hereditary cystic fibrosis.

Today, I am completely unable to secure a normal life for my daughter. I didn't expect the situation to get to what it was, and I couldn't take it anymore. I see her in pain in front of me every day, and I can do nothing to ease her pain, especially when she coughs. I have turned to many charities, but I am ashamed of myself and of asking for help because our appeal was not dealt with, and I can no longer bear the view of medicine in the Gaza Strip that Naya's death is only a matter of time.
