From Under the Rubble... I Write My Story 🌿

I never thought I would write these words… 😔

I never imagined waking up to endless screams,

Running barefoot through smoke and fire,

Searching for my mother among the rubble,

Only to find nothing but silence… a heavy silence telling me that no one will answer me anymore. 💔

In one moment, everything changed.

Our home became a memory, my mother’s embrace became the past,

And my father's face, now absent, is the last thing I hold in my memory.

They’re gone… and left my heart burdened with unspoken grief. 😢

But despite everything, we are still here… trying.

I survived with my younger siblings.

Yes, we survived… but who are we after survival?

Children without warmth, without a roof, with no place to return to.

We were displaced to an unknown place, carrying a bag empty of everything… except pain. 🥀

We slept in the open, waking every morning to a life that holds nothing for us,

But despite everything… we keep trying. 💪

I write to you today not to cry, but to ask for hope. 🌱

I ask you to be a small light in this vast darkness,

To extend a hand that can mend what the war has broken in us.

Your donation will give my siblings a chance to sleep safely,

It will provide us with food, shelter, and maybe even a new beginning. 💖

Any amount, no matter how small, is big for us

It’s a prayer, it’s love, it’s life. 🌟

In conclusion...

From my heart, and from the hearts of my little siblings,

Thank you to everyone who has donated,

Thank you to everyone who has read,

Thank you to everyone who has shared.

You are the proof that goodness does not die, and that humanity has no boundaries. 💚

I made this so now all y'all have to look at it.

I am making this post on behalf of my friend, @hashembadr. Hashem is #102 on @gazavetters’ spreadsheet.

Hashem is currently raising money for his family in Gaza. There are 26 people in his group, including himself. 13 of them are children between the ages of 3 to 16. Among these children is Hashem’s neice, Suhaam, who is 9 years old.

(The above redraw of Suhaam was drawn by astraios-art to avoid triggering tumblr’s mature content filters with blood.)

Suhaam was injured on October 22, 2023 and had to have surgery on her left arm. Due to the war and repeated displacement, she was not able to receive follow up treatment or rest as needed. Now, her arm has healed badly and she needs a revision surgery. She experiences pain and has trouble moving it. She has trouble holding toys. It is possible she may lose the arm if she does not get this surgery soon.

GoFundMe takes a 2% commission from donations, and the transfer fees to Gaza take another 30% off of that reduced number. In order to pay for his neice’s surgery, Hashem will need to raise $5,920. ($4,700 for the operation and treatment, plus $111 for the GFM commission fee, plus another $1,110 is the price of transferring the amount to Gaza 30% for the transfer fee.)

A large portion of the current GFM funds (about £6,000, give or take) were used to pay for two replacement tents after the three they were living in were destroyed by shrapnel in an attack, a bed and mattress for Suhaam, and daily living expenses. I have tracked those expenses here, but the links are broken because tumblr terminated Hashem’s old blog. As such, the GFM must reach at least £11,000 for Suhaam to get her surgery, though Hashem may be forced to use some of the current funds to purchase food for the rest of the family.

Hashem is a good friend and we have been chatting almost daily (when he has internet) for months now. There isn’t much I can do for him except to make his voice louder. Please share this post and donate if you are able!

I’ve also included some examples of art from artists who are offering commissions in exchange for donations to Hashem below if you need further incentive to give.

If you donate any amount of money, you can get a cute lil dragon doodle from @shadowfoxsilver! Here's a cutie she drew for me! They also offer additional tiers for more complex drawings.

For at least $3, you can get a doodle from @artobotsrollout! Here's is a $10 sketch I got from her. The sketch tier includes progress shots, line art, and a full color piece.

If you donate at least $5, you can get a sketch from @astraios-art! Here's one he did for me of Tenzou helping Sakura chase Kakashi down for a check up!

@orilifiel is also offering $5 donation sketches! Here is one he drew for me of my favorite Resident Evil Head canon where Leon finds a cake from the welcome party mid game and eats it with a blank stare.

@derelictheretic is also offering $5 sketches on this post! They also offer additional tiers for more complex drawings.

For at least $7, you can get a sketch from @optimistic-autistic! Here's one he did for me of one of my favorite pokemon, Chikorita! He also offers additional tiers for more complex drawings.

If you donate at least $15, you can get a character design from @crungulus. $25 will get you a portrait, and $30 will get you even more, like this commission they did for me of my late cat, Callie.

These offers may expire, so donate now!

My Testimony About What Happened at the American Aid Distribution Point

That day, I went out with one hope ، to bring back food for my starving family. But what happened there felt like the Day of Judgment.

As we stood in line waiting for humanitarian aid, we were suddenly met with a hail of bullets. We were shot at by Israeli snipers, attacked by quadcopter drones, and even assaulted by looters supported by the Israeli army. We were completely unarmed, simply trying to get food ، but the bullets of betrayal spared no one.

I was shot in the leg a minor injury ، but my phone was destroyed after being hit directly. I had no way to contact anyone. I’m now using a borrowed phone, just to write these words… hoping they reach someone who cares.

I saw bodies fall all around me… more than 70 people were killed, including children, women, and elderly men. Moments earlier, they were standing beside me, simply waiting for aid. They were not a threat to anyone ، just hungry human beings.

I went out in search of food for my family of 26 people, including a young girl who was injured in the war and urgently needs special care and surgery. I came back wounded, devastated, empty-handed, and without a phone.

We are not living ، we are slowly dying. The occupation has turned us into zombies… starving, sick, hopeless.

Please, do not forget us.

Speak about us. Share our story. Be our voice.

We desperately need donations from kind hearts to buy food, provide urgent medical care for our injured child, and support the family under this brutal siege.

Even the smallest donation can make a real difference.

Help us stay alive.

Just a moment, please. We are dying of hunger in Gaza. Please help us by sharing or donating. My children are dying.

I won’t say much… but I’ll say this honestly: I live in a place with no safety, no medicine, and not enough food. Every day we survive by a miracle, and every hour our chances get smaller.

We truly need your help not just sympathy, real support. Even a small donation could help us live one more day.
