Palestinian refugee from Syria in Lebanon Adnan Othman was pronounced dead on Friday following a delay in a heart surgery which was slated to be undergone at a Lebanese hospital.
Sometime earlier, Adnan’s family appealed to the concerned bodies to help the family secure urgent treatment fees.
Adnan, deported from Yarmouk Camp to the southern Lebanese city of Sidon, was rushed to AlHamshari Hospital, in Sidon, following a heart attack, before he was transferred to Delaa Clinic to undergo a surgery.
His wife said he has been diagnosed with clogged heart artilleries and cardio-vascular disorders. He is in need of a heart pacemaker to recover his normal heartbeat. The hospital administration said the surgery, scheduled for August 21, coasts $15,000, a sum that far outlives the wife’s budget.
Palestinian and Syrian migrants from war-ravaged Syria have been often launched cries for help over their inability to pay treatment bills and access much-needed health facilities in the Lebanese territories.
