Tariq had an accident and broke his neck. It damaged his spinal cord and left him paralyzed from the chest down (in medical terms - Traumatic Tetraplegia due to C6 injury). **Bio** Tariqul Islam Rashed is 28 year old. Hes the 2nd child of his parents and has 1 brother and 2 sisters. His fathers was a Flight Sergent at Bangladesh Air Force, who retired in 1992. His mother is a housewife. He currently lives with his parents, brother and his family at his brothers apartment in Dhaka, Bangladesh. **Financial Condition** Theyve been struggling financially after his fathers retirement. Being the only earning member, his older brother finds it hard to take care of 6 people with his limited income. So, Tariqs family isnt even capable of carry out the expenses of the preliminary diagnosis (MRI, X-rays, etc.). **Accident** Tariq was a happy and energetic young man. He is a very good soccer player and different teams used to hire him. On Sept. 9th 2006, he went swimming with his friends after a match he played in Chittagong. When he attempted to jump into a pond, he slipped and fell upside down on his head in shallow water and got a broken neck. He spent months in 3 different hospitals in Bangladesh, but the doctors couldnt save him from being paralyzed. **Tariqs Appeal** In his words - No one can realize, how difficult it is for someone to lead an abnormal life suddenly after being normal. It’s been more than 7 years Im in a wheelchair. I always read articles, watch videos on spinal treatment. Once I read an article about a patient like me who had the surgery after 6 years of his accident in the USA and recovered completely. That makes me believe that Ill get well soon. My family can’t afford my diagnosis, let alone the whole treatment. So, I need your help. Please help me to lead a normal life. Tariq needs treatment in countries like India, Singapore or Thailand and its expensive. His family exhausted all they had to treat him last few years. Now he needs our help. Lets join our hands to help him live again! **How to DONATE** 1. Donate online: gofundme/helptariq 2. Send checks to: Mohammad Karim/Muna Hoque 8849 138th St. Jamaica, NY11435 USA 3.
