An Iraqi father in Dubai is appealing for help to pay for his daughter’s treatment in Germany after she suffered from multiple fractures in the skull and other parts of her body in a car crash last year, a newspaper reported on Tuesday.’

Zainah,19, has been undergoing treatment at Twam hospital in the eastern town of Al-Ain since she was nearly crippled in the accident in April 2010 but doctors said a full recovery required treatment in Germany, Emirat Alyoum said.

“Doctors in Munich said that Zainah needs a surgery and treatment for around eight days…the cost is around 20,000 euros (Dh147,000), it said.

“Her father was pleased to know that his daughter can be treated by felt sad that he can not afford it as he is supporting a family of nine and his salary is only about Dh4,000 a month.”
