Tahar, 9 years old, is suffering from cancer, more precisely Ewing sarcoma:

Ewing sarcoma has a highly invasive potential, and it is therefore not uncommon for other cancer sites to appear in the body, especially in the lungs, the skeleton and the bone marrow.



Nearly 95% of Ewing tumors are due to a genetic alteration: most often, it is a translocation that occurs between chromosomes 11 and 22.

Tahar received chemotherapy sessions on the tibia. Some time later, a large mass unfortunately appeared in the jaw.

Ewing sarcoma is highly metastatic.



Tahar currently lives with his mother (his father left when the illness was announced)

and is receiving "no care" — no painkillers, no radiotherapy and not even chemotherapy.

Tahar currently lives in Fez, Morocco.



A surgical intervention to remove the cancerous area with treatment by chemotherapy and radiotherapy will be recommended. These techniques have greatly improved the prognosis of Ewing sarcoma. The cure rate is currently 60%.

Tahar has a high chance of not having a long life because this cancer is very aggressive.

But we decided to support him whatever the outcome to alleviate his suffering and that of his family. And God knows best....

We have contacted the Medical Park facility.



Tahar can no longer speak or eat
Tahar breaks our hearts
Whatever the outcome, let us no longer leave Tahar isolated

Here is the estimate issued which includes care already provided as well as care to come, God willing:



Every day that passes is a victory for his progressing cancer.

This type of illness must be treated in time.



Alas, in some countries, too many people still do not have the chance to receive dignified care.

Tahar is subject to hematemeses (regurgitation of blood)






It is for this reason that we ask for your charity to provide dignified care to Tahar.

His mother suffers seeing her son bedridden and agonizing. She must face life's trials alone.



With a minimum of empathy, each of us knows that living such a situation even for one day would be simply unbearable for the vast majority of us.

We thank all the hearts who will respond to this call for help.

May God reward you.






Edit on 04/05/2018

We received little Tahar's proforma and are faced with various dilemmas.

According to the medical reports (we have no MRI), the doctors believe they may no longer be able to combat little Tahar's cancer, which would be in a very advanced stage. This must be confronted with the examinations that will be carried out on site in Turkey.

(declared in 2016 on a tibia, followed by various radiotherapy sessions and then a mandibular tumor mass)

It was proposed to the family to finance a private clinic in Morocco to provide palliative care or to go to Turkey.

The choice was ultimately left to the child, who submitted in writing (he cannot speak) to go to Turkey.



Tahar will therefore be transferred this week.

However, a $900 daily estimate was presented to us.

We obviously do not know how long this child will live and we have no knowledge of his life expectancy. For this reason, it is difficult for us to set a fundraising target to reach. Also, we will in no way be able to finance any additional costs at this facility (the association's working capital being almost non-existent) if Tahar were to survive a few more months.

We count on the solidarity of the sisters and brothers to finance his hospitalization, which will certainly be mainly palliative rather than curative care.



The amount of the collection takes into account traveling bank fees, Paypal fees, airline tickets and any additional costs related to tests and care, as well as an advertising budget and accommodation for the mother's brother who will accompany her.

As a reminder, the association has already funded since March 2016: 16 living-donor liver transplants, cardiac operations, neurological shunt procedures and many others.

Whatever the amount of your gesture, by making a donation you become an important and effective link in the long chain of solidarity.

May God reward you.

We inform you that in the event of death the funds will be transferred to another child.

You can also send your donation by bank transfer, indicating the child's name in the communication:



If you cannot participate financially, share this campaign around you as much as possible. Because sharing is also helping, you can contribute to the fundraiser by recommending this donation page around you via social networks.

THANK YOU!
