Journey to Recovery

Ibtisam Muhyeddin Youssef, a 25-year-old woman, faced a major challenge after having her right leg amputated due to cancer. She spent seven months enduring pain and difficulty.
Her journey toward healing and reclaiming a normal life reflects strength, resilience, and determination. After visiting the prosthetics center run by the Kurdish Red Crescent, Ibtisam received a prosthetic leg, along with physical therapy and psychological support. This integrated care helped her navigate through some of the most difficult and painful months of her life.
Today, Ibtisam walks with confidence toward a new life — one where her prosthetic leg stands as a symbol of her struggle and victory over illness.
