Update: 7/3 Extubation

Lina Tayseer Kurdi
AlhumduAllah, Yusef was extubated this morning and he breathing fine. He has his eyes wide open and is trying to speak. Hes words are very quiet and hard to understand BUT he told me he loved me and blew me a kiss. Please continue to make A LOT of duah for him. InshAllah in 6 months to a year the doctors are expecting a FULL recovery. Allah Ye7my Wa Yeshee InshAllah YA RUB.

Dear Brs/Srs:
assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatahu
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

This is Najia Kurdi (Yusef’s older sister).

May Allah reward each and everyone of you who helped with donations
and/or prayers for Yusef Kurdi during this very difficult time for me
and my family. Alhumdullillah, through your generous efforts we were
able to transport my brother, Yusef, to the U.S. at a very critical
point in his medical care.

Here is a brief status of the medical situation of my brother, Yusef:

He is now receiving care at a trauma center in a hospital in South
Florida and they are very hopeful for his recovery. He was just taken
off the ventilator and he immediately mumbled “alhumdulillah”.
Although, they are hoping for a full recovery they are expecting this
to take six months to a year.

Here is a status of the financial situation (alhamdulillah):

Donations raised so far:                            $50,000
Aruba hospital costs:                                 -$15,000
‘Life Flight’ to transport him to U.S.: -$20,000
_________
Approx. still left over:                                 $15,000

All of this was made possible by your generous donations,
jazakumAllahu khairan !

Alhamdulillah, the immediate critical need for money (Aruba hospital +
air lift) has been met. However, we are anticipating big hospital
bills for his treatment (as he does not have insurance) for which we
will still be in need of your generous help.

Honestly, we have no idea how much more money we will be needing for
his treatment. But if you like to help us you may do so by clicking
