Nour is a curious and happy 6-year-old girl, who loves to explore and play. As with many children with Down Syndrome, she is prone to lung and heart related issues, and is in need of periodic medical care. Nour is frequently hospitalized and requires diapers and specialized medication. She is also in need of dental care, as poor hygiene and nutrition have led to severe tooth decay.

Nour’s older sister Hanan, has an intellectual disability and suffers from regular epileptic seizures. Nour’s two cousins, Omar (12 mos) and Aylul (14 mos) also live with the family.

The family has moved back to their bombed home on April 16th, 2026, and in it there is only one inhabitable room. The children play amidst rubble and there are few safe spaces. Their parents / granparents long to provide a suitable shelter, but there is no hope for that currently. Their biggest hope is to keep the children fed with enough milk and diapers for the youngest two. They have been resorting to plastic bags and strips of nylon in the absence of diapers which has caused severe diaper rash for them both.
