Description : Distant from her missing husband and grieved by the death of her brother and her daughter's spouse due to the conflict in Syria, Ra found herself alone and destitute. She did not surrender to the cruelty of life and despair and decided to undertake the impossible for the sake of her children. "I was emotionally devastated, but I feared for my five children, especially my widowed daughter and her child. I gathered my strength for the sake of my children and decided to do the impossible for them. I started working in embroidery because I had no other means of support," Ra says, reminiscing about her beginnings in the difficult profession of embroidery. Through her effort, diligence, and exceptional skill, she was able to achieve remarkable success.
