JOHOR BAHRU, Aug 19 (Bernama) -- Yayasan Sultan Ibrahim Johor (YSIJ) has provided assistance to help with the living expenses of Muhammad Hazreel Mikhail Hizar, 15, who has been suffering from the chronic skin condition epidermolysis bullosa (EB) since birth.

The assistance was presented through the Ziarah Kasih programme, at the home of Hazreel’s mother, Noor Halimaton Hashim, at the Sungai Tiram People’s Housing Project (PPR), yesterday (Aug 18).

A post uploaded on the Facebook page of Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar said that Hazreel’s condition requires constant care, including wound cleaning to reduce the risk of infection, as well as an environment that is kept cool and air-conditioned at all times.

The situation also poses a challenge to Noor Halimaton, a single mother who supports three children and is unable to work full-time, as she needs to care for Hazreel around the clock.

“This assistance has come at the right time for our family, and I am very grateful for the concern shown by the Yayasan Sultan Ibrahim Johor towards Hazreel,” she told the Royal Press Office (RPO) in a statement uploaded on the Facebook page.
