For 12 years, Reza has lived in pain, trapped in a frail body he never asked for. His tiny frame is just skin and bones.

Diagnosed with cerebral palsy, severe malnutrition, and motor disorders at just 6 months old, Reza has suffered endlessly. But due to lack of money, his treatments stopped, and his condition worsened year after year.

 “I cry seeing him in pain… His hands and legs are stiff. It’s been so long since he had therapy,” says his mother, Mrs. Ai, wiping her tears.

Every day, Mrs. Ai carries Reza around the village to sell snacks, earning just $3 on good days. One day, Reza suddenly had a seizure on the road—his body turned blue. All she could do was hold him and cry.

Her dream is simple: to get a stable income so she can sell from home and care for Reza better. “If I could sell from home, he wouldn’t have to suffer in the heat and get so tired,” she says.

Dear friends, Reza deserves a chance to smile without pain, and Mrs. Ai needs support to keep going. Your help—no matter how small—can bring hope, therapy, and a better life for Reza.
