ESSA’S STORY

Essa, 75 years old, suffers from several chronic illnesses, including Parkinson’s disease, brain atrophy, heart issues, impaired vision, diabetes, and hypertension.

Due to his critical condition and need for 24-hour care, his only son resigned from his job to stay home and provide constant assistance with daily tasks such as eating, taking medication, and personal hygiene.

His son chose to prioritize caring for his father over work, as Essa's elderly wife is unable to manage his care alone. However, the cost of Essa’s monthly medications is a significant financial burden, especially given the number of prescribed treatments required for his conditions.
