Palestinian refugee Ramez Ghazi Melhem, aged 43, has appealed to the humanitarian and human rights organizations to help him secure funds needed for an urgent surgery.
Melhem, a resident of Deraa Camp for Palestinian refugees, south of Syria, underwent a hemicolectomy (a surgery to remove part of the colon).
He needs another surgery that costs 300 USD.
The Assad University Hospital confiscated his identity documents as he failed to pay the surgery fees. Melhem managed to pay only half the sum. He also needs 40,000 Syrian pounds weekly for colostomy.
