MARIAM’S STORY

Mariam, 36 years old, is facing a difficult situation after separating from her husband while in her seventh month of pregnancy. Despite her deep love and excitement for the baby she is expecting, separation seemed to be the best choice for her circumstances.

Mariam lives alone in her home, as both of her parents have passed away. She relies on a modest income of less than 100 dinars a month from the National Aid Fund, which is not enough to cover the costs of her childbirth or to provide essential items for her baby.
