CANADA ) IN THE MATTER of a Humanitarian and Compassionate application (H&C) for PROVINCE OF ONTARIO l Maryam Helon Tannous. in accordance CITY OF OTTAWA ) wrth section 25(I) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. Afdavit of Maryam Helou Tannons I. Maryam Helou Tannous. of the City of Ottawa in the Province of Ontario. D0 SOLEMLY SWEAR TO THE FOLLOWING: 1. My name is Maryam Helou Tamous. I was born on August 2. 1948. in Beirut. Lebanon. 2. I was married to Elias C hamoun on July 10. 1973. We had two sons. Youssef Chamoun. (DOB: February 3. I975). Bashir Chamoun. (DOB: May 14. 1977) and a daughter. Nadine Chamoun (DOB: November 25. 1980). 3. Since 1994. my husband and I lived in an apartment in the Hazmiyeh neighbourhood of Beirut. My husband died in August of 2022 from a stroke. After his death. I lived alone in the apartment. In October of 2022. I came to Ottawa where I reside with my daughter. Nadine. and her family. I have a temporary resident visa. Due to multiple compassionate reasons. my family and I now believe that I should remain permanently in Canada. 4. In Lebanon. I worked as a custodian for AlDar (a large property maintenance company) from 1995 until 2013. I made the decision to retire in 2013 because I had reached the age of retirement and was experiencing physical difculties. As I worked in the private sector. I was not eligible for a pension (only public employees get pensions in Lebanon). I managed to get by nancially in Lebanon with the help of my children. I don't have any savings. but my children helped me nancially as much as they can every month. 5. I have suffered many physical injuries in the past two decades. I underwent double knee replacement surgery over 15 years ago and since then I have been living in pain. Two years ago. after falling twice. I underwent two other knee replacement surgeries and now I have trouble walking and standing on my feet for a long time. Moreover. I have been dealing with gall bladder issues and in 20l8 I had two surgeries to remove my gall bladder. On top of all this. I am diabetic and have hypertension problems. 6. These physical problems have impacted my life greatly. For example. because of my knee injury. I can't stand on my feet for a long time and if I stand for too long I feel like I am going to fall. Moreover. I get tired very quickly. I can't shower alone and I need someone to help me. Because of the removal of my gall bladder. I am struggling with digestion issues and get sick often. 7. I am not able to leave my house without assistance. I struggle with going out to get necessities. Because of my physical disabilities. I used to stay at home almost all the time. When my daughter was in Lebanon. she used to help me as much as she could. since she was the closest to me. However. my daughter has relocated to Canada. 8. In case of necessity. my neighbours in Hazmiyeh used to help me whenever they could. but obviously they're not available all the time for me. I fear what will happen to me if I return to Lebanon and I am once again forced to live by myself. As a result of my knee problems. I fall very oen. which may cause many serious physical injuries that will worsen my already limited physical difculties. If I fall. I won't be able to get back up by myself and I won't be able to call for help
