At a small room in a shared home with other two families in Gaza, Ahmed's parents are finding it hard to cover all needs of their children due to their poverty and harsh life condition. The parents have experienced poverty since their marriage, and their condition got worse after having two disabled children. Ahmed, a disabled child suffering from cerebral palsy, has two sisters; one of them is also suffering from the same mental condition. Both need special care, treatment and special kinds of drinks and food along with diapers. The father works in a clothes store earning a small amount of money that could barely cover few needs of his disabled children. Benevolent Society for Disabled helps them match some of their basics and Ahmed's special needs. The family's struggle goes on especially in the coming days of Eid El-Adha. By the Benevolent Society for Disabled's support, such families can live decently.
