Yasmeen lives with her three children, but illness lives with them too. She and her children all suffer from thalassemia: constant fatigue, blood breakdown, loss of balance, and a weakness that wears down their bodies day after day. They need continuous medication, supplements, and special nutrition, but securing them is not easy. There are times when they go without proper treatment, and the yellowing has begun to show on their faces, while exhaustion is visible in their small bodies. Her eldest daughter sometimes collapses at school from fatigue and loss of balanceو her body asking for what the family cannot always provide. An entire household fighting illness together…a mother and her three children trying to remain standing, even as their own blood grows weak within them.
