Hassan was born on October 18, 2018, eleven weeks premature. Thanks to supporters of Project Reunite, we were able to wire money to his family in Lebanon that allowed him to remain in hospital and continue his fight to survive.
In June 2019, Hassan arrived in Winnipeg with his parents, five brothers, and a sister. By twelve months, he still could not sit up. At eighteen months, he wasn’t walking or talking.
Over the past year and a half, however, with the support of a Manitoba Health child development team (even through a pandemic!), he’s grown into a thriving three-year-old, chasing his siblings around the yard and chatting up a storm.
- Siblings Mohamad, Hussein, Asma, Ahmad, Hassan, Hamza and Shabaan (plus cousin Hamoodi, jumping up in middle, who has six sisters so hangs out at their place a LOT!) celebrated Hassan’s 3rd birthday on October 18, 2021.
