đŹ Just a Small Update, and a Big Thank You
Dear friends, kind hearts, and everyone who has stood with us,
When I first opened my heart to the world and shared our story, I never imagined the amount of love and solidarity we would receive. Thanks to your incredible support, weâve now reached $12,837âa milestone that brings real light to some very dark days.
From the deepest corners of my heart, thank you.
As many of you know, Iâve lost 25 of my loved ones during this devastating war. That grief lives with me every single day. Itâs in the silence that once held laughter, in the empty spaces where we once gathered as a family.
But through your help, Iâve also felt something else: hope. And that hope is priceless.
â21/Oct/2023 Before It Reached Us: The Day Our Neighborâs House Was Destroyedâ A quiet moment of fear, filmed just before everything changed.
â22/Oct/2023 The Morning After: Our Family Home in Ruinsâ This is what was left behind after the bombing of our home.
Despite everything, weâre still here. Still surviving. Still hoping.
But things have only gotten harder.
The war has returned, more brutal than beforeâand for over a month now, Gaza has been completely sealed off. No food is coming in. No medical supplies. No aid. No trade. No one is allowed to leave, and no one is allowed to enter.
Weâre trapped.
đ We live with the fear of tomorrow, every single day. Airstrikes, drones, and the uncertainty of what might happen next. đ¨âđŠâđ§ Our family is forever changedâwe havenât just lost people; weâve lost pieces of ourselves. đ Basic needs go unmetâeven clean water feels like a luxury now. Medicines, if they exist at all, are unreachable.
And yetâŚ
Your support reminds us that weâre not forgotten. It reminds us that someone, somewhere, is still listening. That someone still cares. That weâre not completely alone in this.
Every message. Every share. Every dollar. It tells us: Youâre walking this road with us. And that gives us the strength to keep going.
If youâve already donatedâthank you beyond words. If you can share our story again, it could reach someone who can help.
Even $5 means warmth, comfort, and a chance to breathe a little easier.
This isnât just about reaching a fundraising goal. Itâs about surviving war with dignity. Itâs about believing in tomorrow. Itâs about making sure my daughter grows up knowing that the world did not look away.
Thank you for your kindness, patience, and belief in our humanity. Youâve helped me find my voiceâand I will use it to keep hope alive.
Thereâs something I need to sayâsomething thatâs been on my heart for some time.
When I first began sharing our story, I didnât know what the right way was. I was scared, grieving, and trying to protect my family in any way I could. I reached out to many people, hoping someone, anyone, would see us. In that process, I now realize I may have overstepped, and I might have made some feel overwhelmed.
If that happened, I am truly sorry.
Please believe me when I say it was never out of disregard or pushiness. It came from a place of fearâfear of being forgotten, fear of not being able to keep my family safe, fear of watching everything I love slip away in silence.
Iâm learning as I go. Iâve slowed down. Iâm more mindful now, trying to share our journey in a way that feels respectful of the space and hearts of those listening.
If my words ever came at the wrong time, or in the wrong way, I hope you can understand where they came fromâand I hope you can forgive me.
Thank you for seeing past my mistakes. Thank you for still being here. It means more than I can ever explain.
With love and endless gratitude, Mosab and family âĽď¸
you ever just make a half hearted oc for a piece of media you love so you can wiggle around and talk to yourself as if you are the actor for said oc and and doing an interview and yap about the book and movie and the characters?
Children in Gaza are losing their limbs every dayâjust like the little girl in this heartbreaking photo. The war has stolen their futures, their mobility, and their right to live in peace. My own son, Qais, is just two years old. He was injured in an airstrike, and I cannot afford the medical treatment he desperately needs. As a mother with no income, I beg youâPLEASE HELP US. Your donation could be the reason Qais walks again.
This is the terrifying reality for many children in Gaza:
1. Airstrikes often target residential areas, leaving children with life-altering injuries.
2. Hospitals lack medicine and equipment, and most families cannot afford private care.
3. Children like Qais are at risk of permanent disability, even death, without timely treatment.
I watch my child cry in pain every night, and I can do nothing but hold him. No mother should face this. We need your support now more than ever. Every donationâno matter the amountâcan help save Qaisâs leg, his future, and his life. Please, Donât Look Away. Help Us Heal.
Donate Now Here
If you want to draw a smile and put it on Qais's heart, Donate Here.
Please stop âđ¨ you're the only hope to save a childđđ

this is a more serious post and vague TW for suicide
does anyone have any advice on how to help someone who is suicidal/get them to not kts? the person who is the reason im making this post isn't CURRENTLY trying to end it but they were a few months ago and I feel like it won't be the last time. I tried my best to help them last time and get them to keep living and they did but looking back on it I said a few insensitive things in an attempt to keep them alive and other than that spent the whole week-ish period just begging them to not do it and I want to know how I can help if/when it happens again. Ive dealt with suicidal thoughts/impulses in the past, (i dont have them really now dw) but they've never gotten to the level where I'd consider myself suicidal as I've never attempted or fully wanted to follow through with it, more just a struggle to find meaning or purpose so I dont fully know what it feels like and I want to help.
sorry this one is a bit heavier than usual but I was thinking about them and wanted to be a bit more prepared for future incidents.
take care <3

please help them if you can!!
My name is Nadin. I never imagined I would write something like this. Iâve always been someone who kept her worries quiet, someone who believed that even the hardest days could be endured with patience and faith. But right now, I am reaching out â not because I want to, but because I need to.
I am a wife, a mother, and one of many women in Gaza trying to survive days that feel like they have no end. There was a short time â a brief ceasefire â where we thought things might start to heal. Where the sound of war faded for just long enough to let us breathe. But that moment is gone now, and the fear has returned louder than before.
My days are filled with uncertainty, and my nights with prayer. We have lost so much. Our home was damaged, our sense of safety taken from us. But through all of this, I try to keep going. I try to hold on to what little peace I can create with my hands, my words, and my love.
I am not asking for much. Just a little help to keep our lives from falling further apart. To fix the small things â a cracked wall, a leaking roof, the pieces of daily life that help us hold on to dignity.
This campaign isnât just about survival. Itâs about holding on to what makes us human in a place that keeps trying to take that away. Itâs about showing my daughter â even though I wonât mention her name here â that the world didnât forget us.
If youâve ever felt powerless in the face of suffering, please know that even the smallest gesture can carry great meaning. A kind word. A shared post. A quiet donation. These things remind us that weâre not alone.
I am still here. Still holding on. Still believing that people out there â people like you â still care.
Please, if you feel moved, consider supporting or sharing this campaign.
