Zena

Zena (born in September of 2025) was diagnosed with large patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) causing abnormal blood flow and significant strain on her heart. She is also severely malnourished. Thankfully, she has just been evacuated to Jordan as of May 8, 2026. Her mom was also able to bring her sister, Fatima (8). Despite this good news, her family is still in need of support. Her two youngest siblings are still in Gaza: Maria (3) & Muhammed (6). The family currently lives in a tent. The children wear worn out clothing, have no toys, and regularly do not eat nutritious meals. Zena’s older sister Fatima suffers from regular seizures. Prior to the war, she took anti-seizure medication, however, the medication has become too expensive ($150 a month, as of 4/16/26).
