Chapter 1 - A Golden Spoon?
2004- 2007 - Unlike how stories usually begin, I was born in a relatively wealthy household (thankfully), I had everything possible at my disposal (as a baby 😄), and lived most of this period in Dubai and Dabouq (A rich neighborhood in Amman if not the richest) so everything was perfect until.....(here is where it begins btw) 😌
Chapter 2 - Not today?
2008 - Things changed.... in 2008 the financial crisis hit, and it hit the whole world of businessmen hard.... my father was one of them.
He lost all the money that he invested which led to his total and utter bankruptcy.
But wait..... why did he invest all his money in the first place?

Chapter 3 - he knew it was the end.....so he chose to fight.
2008 - After enduring about a year of severe unimaginable headaches my father went to the doctor and was diagnosed with a benign tumor that keeps on growing in the location of the pituitary gland (In the exact midpoint of the skull cavity).
- This meant Surgery (Less than 10% Succeding rate)
or Death within a short period (1 year max).
He chose the second option, he had 1 year to live with unbelievable psychological and physiological pain.
So that he could have enough time to invest all his money and grant us (Me & my little brother) a safer and guaranteed future.

Chapter 4 - A new chapter has begun
2008 - After a myriad of appointments with 7 different doctors who all reached the same conclusion (surgery), my mother convinced my father to check one last doctor in Amman, the doctor did one last blood test (checking prolactin) which at that time none of the previous doctors even thought of.
The prolactin levels were staggeringly high, which meant that the tumor was induced by this unusual activity of the pituitary gland.(Prolactinoma)

This meant that my father only needed medicine treatment and had no need for that dangerous surgery, God indeed made him bankrupt but he gave him a new life.
A new life in the Southern part of the Arabian Peninsula.......Yemen.

Chapter 5 - The foreigner
2008 - 2015 - And with that, my childhood was officially sponsored by Yemen, both the northern and the southern part, I won't delve deep into that journey but it was one of the most important experiences that shaped who I am now.
Later as we know, war struck Yemen, we were the last Jordanian family to leave the country on April 2015.
