EgyptAir
flight MS804 with more than 66 people on board crashed during a flight from
Paris to Cairo.
Among
the dead was a husband and wife who sold everything to pay for life saving
cancer treatment and now leave behind their three young children as orphans.
According
to the Egyptian newspaper Marawy, 31-year-old Ahmed Ashery sold his family's
flat and car to raise money so his wife Reham could undergo cancer surgery in
France.
The
couple left their young son and two daughters with his mother and spent a month
in Paris, where Mrs Ashery had surgery and seemed on the path to a full
recovery. They boarded Flight 804 on Wednesday night excited to be reunited
with their small children but the plane never made it back to Cairo.
"Ahmed
sold everything to save his wife and ease her grief," said Mohamed
al-Shenawi, a family friend. "I advised him to accept the command of God
and look for treatment in Egypt but he insisted on travelling. They spent a
month and then they returned onboard the plane which didn't arrive and now will
never arrive."
"He
travelled to Paris with his wife, leaving his three children with his mother.
They spent a month and then they retured onboard the plane which didnt arrive
and now will never arrive."
