Dear Friend 🌺🕊

I want to express my sincere gratitude for your kindness during this challenging time. We have lost everything due to the conflict in Gaza—our newly built home and my husband's job. Our son, Yamen, was born just months after the war began, and his future remains uncertain. Ashraf is working tirelessly to secure a better future for us.

I would be immensely grateful if you could consider a small donation of €10 or €20. If you are unable to contribute financially, please consider sharing my pinned post. Your support can make a significant difference for Yamen’s future and will help us navigate this crisis as we strive for a brighter tomorrow.

Warm regards, 🌺

Ghadeer Al Arqan

(Ashraf's wife)

I can't donate (I'm poor, sorry), but the least I can do is spread the word

Most of us will never know the agony of being a parent that does everything to provide for their child, only to keep coming up empty. Of the immense suffering and self-loathing that comes with being responsible for this little life, and feeling like you're failing: to keep them safe, warm, sheltered, fed. Of holding your child, your toddler, your newborn, watching them slowly waste away from that relentless, gnawing hunger you can't stop (one that you feel yourself). Watching as they howl in pain, and the hollowness that comes when your child becomes too weak even to do that. All the while being totally helpless to stop it because it's not up to you.

Most of us will only see the aftermath of such a thing: a parent carrying the far-too-light shroud of their child, pictured under a headline that details how starvation has taken hold of some given population. Distant and removed from us.

Except that it isn't. There are so many desperate parents who've run out of options, for whom this isn't some abstraction, who are asking—begging—us for our help. Just so they'll be able to buy some of the shit canned food left from the last aid delivery, and a couple loaves of bread to feed their children with. Extortionately pricey because of scarcity, but it's enough to keep their children in a state of "acute malnutrition" rather than "catastrophic hunger", so they'll pay anything for it.

Attacks on NGOs & prevention of aid into Gaza puts every single person there at risk of a slow death due to starvation. Especially children, like Samah's newborn baby boy, her little 2 year-old girl, and their big sister (who's only 9). But we can help. What's pocket money for us, is an invaluable lifeline to parents like Samah. At a time when so many seem to have decided to live in an alternate universe in which deliberate starvation and mass slaughter of civilians is acceptable, we have to do what we can to oppose it. Not to push it away, to ignore it, to decide it's been going on so long we don't care or that it's hopeless so give up, but to grit our teeth, dig our heels in, and say "no, seriously, what the fuck are we doing here?"

tldr: donate to Samah so she can buy food for her kids so they don't starve to death. please. and thank you. :)

The tags are everything I know. I am sharing this with every single one to try and spread the word.

He needs a comatose long nap for the amount of stress that he (put on himself. Derogatory) is under.

he needs a break

PLEASE I NEED MONEY-

Not sure what I'd be more afraid of, the knife for obvious purposes or the spatula for the less obvious, but more embarrassing purposes
