Carmen El-Khoury El-Sayegh is a Lebanese housewife. In her younger years, she had modeled for International designer Zuhair Murad. On August 4, 2020, Carmen was in her home in Gemmayze preparing dinner. When she heard the first explosion, she tried to open the windows to reduce pressure. She didn’t know the intensity of the second explosion would destroy the wall and windows in her room, pushing her towards the other wall, and then to the floor, as her face hit the shattered glass covering the floor and she lost consciousness. Carmen was in a coma for 23 days, and although doctors did not expect she would survive, she beat all odds and woke up, but unfortunately she lost her vision.
