Assistance to families of patients
Michal's story - one of many kinds
"There were days when my family helped the needy. Who would have believed that one day we would be on the other side .... only those who have experienced this (God forbid) can understand how a serious illness of a family member affects the whole family and degrades it. When I got cancer my family stopped living Dad was fired from his job because he had to accompany me for a long time to the difficult treatments and prolonged hospitalizations. Mom stayed home to take care of my little brothers. All the money my parents saved over the years, we spent on expensive medications and travel trips. When the money ran out they started lending money from the bank and private individuals. .
The debts swelled and my parents could not pay them. This is how we became a needy family. Luckily, someone told our story to the chairman of the Heroes-Winners Association together, and with the support of the association, which raised money as part of a fund established in my name - we survived, not only me, but my whole family.

A serious illness overthrows an entire family
Michal's story is the story of many families, who devoted all their financial and mental resources to a family member who fell seriously ill. In Life-Winning Heroes Together, which helps difficult patients raise funds to fund medications, transplants and surgeries, we are witnessing the painful deterioration of patients' families, who lose all their money and possessions, and incur heavy debts to fund expensive and special medications and treatments not included in the health basket. The family member dedicates all means. Whole families fall from Igra Rama to Bira Amikata, subsist on basic and minimal foodstuffs, live in starvation conditions, and cannot afford to have Shabbat and holiday meals.
