The Dhimaku family is in mourning. The doors of death have opened. Amidst indescribable pain, family and relatives are awaiting condolences for the passing of two daughters, medical students, Elvisa, 22, and Rozina, 20.
The sacrifices to cure their 7-year-old brother, who suffers from leukemia, were great not only for the head of the family who deals with livestock, but also for the two daughters who worked two jobs to cope with the difficult economic conditions.
Report TV was with the Dhimaku family, where the family members tearfully told that the two girls were selling corn in the coastal city of Saranda to cover the costs of treatment. The aunt and daughter told Report TV that on the evening when the accident occurred, Elvisa and Rozina had finished one of their jobs and had returned to their apartment to relax. After 30 minutes, they set off to sell corn in Saranda, which is teeming with tourists, but the 24-year-old employee of the Ministry of Interior, Kevi Norra, drunk at the wheel and speeding, cut off the road due to a wrong overtaking, taking his life.
"We live in such great pain. The two maids left and never returned. They had come home from work in the evening, they were doing two jobs to help their brother recover because they couldn't afford it. They came, rested, and then went back to work. In Saranda, they sold corn and village goods. They left, and we feel the pain," says Shahide, the aunt of the two girls.
They still haven't found the courage to tell their 7-year-old son that his two sisters have died. They have removed the little one from the house, while they have an appeal for help from all Albanians to help with his treatment.
"They have an only brother, he was very close to them, if we found out... we took him away from home. We are asking for help so that the boy can go to a more specialized hospital to save us," says Shahidja, the girls' aunt, through tears, the aunt continues.
The boy was very close to his two older sisters. He has been facing a difficult illness for 3 years, while his uncle tells Report TV about the sacrifices and difficulties they have gone through.
"I live in exile. What happened to us should not happen to anyone, not even my enemy, I also ask for help for my son, who has been suffering from these problems for 3 years, he has a blood disease. We have fought with our own strength as much as we could. The son is 7 years old. The moment he finds out, his condition will immediately worsen," says the girls' uncle Vasil Dhimaku.
The father of the two girls is a livestock farmer, while the mother takes care of the sick son.
"2 stars, two girls, 22 years old and 20 years old, both students in Tirana. The parents, workers in the village, worked day and night for those girls to settle down and study. They are asking for help for the boy, may God help us. The boy knows nothing about the sisters," said Servet Dervishi, the girls' uncle.
