Case description

AMOUNT NEEDED - JOD 5,500

Remas’s father and the family’s breadwinner lost his job after the factory he worked at closed down due to the pandemic, and he hasn’t found work since.

Remas needs an insulin pump as soon as possible so she can start managing her Type 1 diabetes better as it will help regulate the insulin in her body and act by replacing the pancreas. She currently needs 21 injections each day, distributed between 20 rapid insulin injections and 1 basal-bolus insulin injections. So instead of all those exhausting injections, the pump will automatically adjust insulin delivery and correct glucose levels every 5 minutes, 24 hours a day.

As a result of her diabetes, Remas has suffered from liver and spleen enlargement, and an accelerated heartbeat, and she’s also suffered psychologically from the daily process; after all it can’t be easy for a 13 year old to deal with a lifelong disease such as Type 1 Diabetes.

Thanks to the Jordanian Medical Professional Services and Supplies Company, MediProz, she can get an excellent insulin pump at the discounted price of JOD 5,500 (discounted from JOD 7,500). Medtronic - MiniMed 780G pump

 

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Remas is a 13-year-old girl with Type 1 diabetes and needs this device to regulate insulin in her body. By getting the insulin pump she desperately needs, Remas can start to manage her condition, lead a normal life and start to feel like any 13-year-old should! She will be able to go to school and continue her education without interruption, as she suffered a lot last year from being hospitalized several times at close intervals, which affected her academic performance negatively. Having the pump will also contribute to improved social communication with her friends, and this will most certainly better her daily life.
