Since the war began, my little daughter Lin has been suffering
She has suffered from a lack of milk, diapers, and even food. Hunger does not spare a child her age. She cries and says, “Mama, I want chicken.” I smile in front of her so she won’t see me breaking inside. I open a can of luncheon meat and tell her, “This is chicken,” while my heart is quietly shattering.
She has been deprived of play… She asks for the simplest things: “I want a bike, I want a toy car,” but I have nothing to give her. So she plays in the sand, creating a world out of dust to replace the childhood that was taken from her.
She has even been deprived of sleep… The night is not a time of rest for her, but of fear. She wakes up terrified by the sound of dogs coming near the tents, screaming and crying, and I cannot calm her. And if she manages to fall asleep for a moment, the fleas return to bite her small body, waking her again in pain and tears.
What has this little angel, only three and a half years old, done to deserve all this suffering?
Look at her… how she cries from the pain of flea bites, and how she eats greedily when she sees chicken—even the bones—because of deprivation.
This is not a story… this is the life of a child being stripped of her most basic rights before the eyes of the world.
Lin does not need sympathy… she needs a life.
She needs safety, food, peaceful sleep, and a childhood she deserves
Save Lin… and save children like her before pain steals what remains of their innocence.
