Halima, 19 years old, CA

Wish submitted by:

While working hard toward her education and goals, Halima is currently navigating a prolonged hospital stay following an unexpected medical setback. She is resilient and determined to get through this difficult time. Support from the community will ease her financial stress and provide a sense of comfort and dignity as she continues her healing journey.

Halima wishes for an Uber Eats gift card to help ensure she has access to meals while recovering from an upcoming surgery. Since a traumatic accident in October 2025, Halima has faced a long and challenging recovery process that has included multiple surgeries and ongoing medical care. As she prepares for another surgery, Halima anticipates returning to a period where her mobility will be significantly limited and she will be unable to walk independently. While Halima is fortunate to have some support from people in her life who assist her when they are able, that support is not always available. There are times when her support network may be unavailable due to work, family obligations, or other commitments. During those moments, having the ability to order food directly to her home would provide an important source of stability and comfort. An Uber Eats gift card would allow Halima to access meals without having to worry about transportation, cooking, or leaving her home while recovering from surgery. It would help ensure that she can focus her energy on healing and following her medical treatment plan rather than stressing about how she will obtain food on days when assistance is unavailable. This is wish 2 of 2.
