Homeless mom of 2 needs help in Gaza

Maha and her family previously had a verified GFM to pay for basic necessities like food, medical care, and some form of shelter. Horrifically, the person running their former GFM has stolen from them and hijacked their campaign.

Below is Maha’s new GFM. Her previous GFM was vetted by el-shab-hussein and nabulsi on their vetted campaign master list, on line 163.

URGENT: Hospital eviction imminent

Maha has been hospitalized due to serious complications from an infected tooth. She is particularly vulnerable to this type of infection, which almost killed her last year. Thankfully her husband has returned from Egypt, but both he and Maha are unable to work and thus cannot pay for her hospital bills. They are over $1,500 usd in debt for her treatment and Maha is about to be kicked out of the hospital.

As I said, last year a very similar infection almost took Maha’s life. If she is expelled from the hospital, a worsened infection is an inevitability. She still has a high fever and needs to remain hospitalized. PLEASE help her continue life-saving treatment!!

I’m making my first corsets(I decided to do 1890’s and an edwardian one at the same time would be a gppd idea). So far, the mock-ups were easy fits; I didn’t have to make adjustments. However, I get to do all of this on hard mode because I need to figure out how to make a structurally sound hole where my gj tube is, so it can stick out. It can’t go under because the compression from the corset would hurt it. I’m determined to make it work, and still be able to where a structurally sound, but accessible corset at the end. I’ve decided I can’t really deal with it until it’s boned; though, because I won’t know where the fabric sits over the tube until then. I’m thinking of reinforcing the hole with binding, and maybe some cording? Idk, I’m doing a lot of guessing lol

At least the mock-ups look fantastic!

I've seen a bunch of "fandom etiquette" posts on my dash today and I'm going to say something that is maybe going to be unpopular but;

The absolutely pervasive mentality that unwanted criticism or critique shouldn't be given and should be ignored is why fans of color don't stay in fan spaces.

And I am not going to mince words here:

A lot of you are racist. A lot of your fan works are racist.

That might have been difficult to hear. And if it was, you should probably reflect on why that was.

"Fandom etiquette" has created a space where fans of color either bite our tongues and eventually leave or say something, get dogged on, and then eventually leave.

So much of "fandom etiquette" seems to be about insulating creatives from Feeling Bad and hostility to any kind of negative feedback is a pretty big contributor to why bigotry festers in these spaces.

#imo the potluck analogy applies- it would be rude to critique someone's icing technique at a potluck bc it wasn't as good as at the bakery #but if they had decorated their cupcakes w hate symbols it wouldn't be rude to tell them that's gross and gtfo #in fact it would be inappropriate to NOT say anything in that situation #or to complain that another guest who did point it out was 'ruining everyone's potluck' #and pointing out racism in fan works is 100% the second thing not the first!

POINT OF NO RETURN!! CHILD NEAR DEATH!! PLEASE HELP!!

6-year-old Souad has been anemic since birth, and starvation and disease due to the IOF assault have caused her severe additional health complications. In September she fell unconscious and was admitted to the hospital. She has since been comatose and fluid is building up around her brain.

Medical staff have worked very hard to reduce the swelling. But despite their efforts, Souad's brain is now hemorrhaging (bleeding). The swelling has been too persistent, and the pressure is rapidly bursting the cells of her brain, causing bleeding. This will kill her. Little Souad is dying.

She needs to be evacuated outside of Gaza, but this is extremely expensive. The cost for transport through the Egyptian border, medical care, and associated expenses comes to $6,000 usd, about €5,000 EUR. This is a devastating setback, but all we can do is push forward.

PLEASE HELP US #SaveSouad!!!

I'm crying as I write these words to you… 💔😭

My little girl, Suad, is dying in my arms right now. 🥺🫀

She's in a deeper coma than the doctors expected 😞🩺, and her little body is weakening moment by moment. ⏳💔 Only machines are keeping her heart beating 🫁🔌, but her innocent soul is fighting to stay with us. 👼💔 The doctor looked at me a little while ago and said, "Every minute now is a difference between life and death." ⚠️🕊️

I'm writing to you with a shattered heart 💔😭💔, as I see my little girl, who used to fill the house with laughter 😍😂😍, now just a lifeless body on a cold bed. 🛌💔🥶 I can't bear the thought of losing her because I couldn't afford her treatment. 😭💸💔 Suad has no one but you now… she has nothing but your prayers and your urgent donations. 🤲🏼💖💨

I implore you 🥺🙏🏼, by the bond of humanity 🤝🌍, by the compassion in your hearts ❤️‍🩹🫶🏼, don't let money be the reason for her passing. 🚫💵🚫 Don't let my child die when you have the power to save her. 🛑👼🆘 Any amount, no matter how small 💵🪙💎, could buy her one more minute of life ⏱️❤️‍🔥, could buy the medicine that will bring her back to me. 💉💊🏥

O Lord, by Your power that encompasses all things ☝🏼🤲🏼🌌, return Suad to us safe and sound 💖🌸👼, and place our helplessness and powerlessness in Your hands alone. 🤲🏼🥺💔

We’ve fought so hard to get this far, and now only $358 stands between my mother and the urgent heart procedure she needs 😔

If just 14 kind people donate $25, my mother can finally get one step closer to the urgent heart procedure she needs

I keep refreshing the fundraiser, hoping to see another donation, but nothing changes. Meanwhile, I return to the hospital and see my mother still waiting, still in pain, still asking me with her eyes for hope that I struggle to give.💔😔

I’m begging you with all my heart , Please… don’t tell yourself, “Someone else will donate.” What if everyone thinks the same way?

Be one of those 14 people. Your $25 may feel small to you, but to me, it could mean one step closer to hearing the words, “Your mother can finally have her procedure.”

Please don’t let our hope fade when we are so close. If you can’t donate, please share our story. Every act of kindness brings my mother closer to the treatment she desperately needs. 💔🙏

Please… be the reason I can tell my mother, “You’re finally going to get your operation.” 💔

💔 My Mother’s Life Depends on Your Kindness

My mother is in Gaza, where every day is a struggle to survive. Some time ago, she was injured when shrapnel from nearby shelling struck her back. She tried to endure the pain for as long as she could, but her condition has become much worse.

Today, my mother is in critical condition. She suffers from unbearable back pain, extreme exhaustion, and her suffering is increasing with every passing day.

After examining her, the doctors told us that she urgently needs emergency back surgery. They warned us that delaying the operation could lead to serious complications and further deterioration of her condition.

The cost of this life-saving surgery is $1,000.

Thanks to the kindness of generous people, we have managed to raise only $188 so far. While we are deeply grateful for every donation, we still need $812 to reach the goal.

For my family, trapped in the devastating conditions in Gaza, raising this amount alone is simply impossible. Every day we wait means more pain for my mother and more fear that her condition will become irreversible.

Iam begging you from the bottom of my heart: please help us save my mother.

Every donation no matter how small brings us closer to giving her the urgent surgery she desperately needs. And if you cannot donate, please share this post with your friends and family. Your share could reach someone who is able to help.

Please don’t let my mother’s pain continue because we couldn’t raise the remaining $812 in time.

Thank you for your kindness, your prayers, and your compassion. ❤️🙏

Help my family rebuild our lives after the war.

I'm Youssef from Gaza, and I'm facing extremely difficult circumstances after my home was destroyed in the war. I have three young children, Lana, Aboud, and Adam, who have been deprived of their right to education and play, and have endured unspeakable hardships.

Now we're living in a tent and facing a severe shortage of basic necessities. I lost my job, and the lack of hope seems to be robbing us of a life of dignity. Amidst this suffering, I've launched a fundraising campaign on GoFundMe, and I need your help to reach my goal.

I'm reaching out to you all and asking for your contribution, even a small amount, whether it's £20, £30, £50, or even £100. Every donation will have a profound impact on our lives and will help us rebuild a better future for my children.

Don't leave our children alone in this ordeal. Every little bit of help will make a big difference.

[aolafamily2000]

In this scorching summer, our tent has become an unbearable place to live. The suffocating heat fills it throughout the day, leaving us with no shade to protect us and no breeze to bring relief. When night falls, another struggle begins as rats and insects spread throughout the tent, stealing our children's sleep and filling their hearts with fear. Every day, we endure the relentless summer heat and the dangers of these harsh conditions. All we hope for is a safe shelter that preserves our dignity and gives our children the chance to live in safety.

She needs to be evacuated outside of Gaza, but this is extremely expensive. However, in addition to the high cost of the medical evacuation, her family is also forced to pay high medical fees to the private hospital which is caring for her. It is the only facility in Gaza with the capacity to slow the deterioration of her condition, and these bills must be paid for her to live long enough for evacuation. We are now raising funds to both support Suad’s immediate life-sustaining care, AND eventual medical evacuation.

I notice alot of my followers on here skipping these posts just to mess with my lgbt ones, suspiciously the white popular ones.

Heres a not so friendly reminder, as an lgbt metis person, i dont give a single fuck what your blog is themed or if this is too painful for you to look at. Reblog this post. Reblog this post with the sources of the 751 children who were found.

Your compliance and silence as well as the compliance and silence of your ancestors is what allowed these schools to open and kill first nations children. The children of MY people.

Dont follow me if you cant reblog this post or the one with sources to your political blog or your most popular blog. Add trigger warnings if you must but if your political blog is only focused on the harms you personally face like being lgbt then you need to see some bigger pictures and stop being afraid of angering your racist mutural or actually saying some shit about racism. If you can reblog some antifa graphics or add blm to your bio to be a surface level ally, you can reblog some sources on the genocide first nations people faced and still face today.

They were CHILDREN.

They were murdered in cold blood.

I’d like to add this photo I took last night in Victoria of the statue of Captain Cook. Though I myself am not indigenous, I 100% agree that these murderers, kidnappers and rapists shouldn’t have huge statues and plaques that decorate them and say how “great” they were.

Here’s another photo of the legislative assembly from yesterday. Later on there were more items, candles and signs at the memorial, as well as a big poster with 1505 painted on it but I didn’t get a picture

People need to see this. Not just quickly glance at the photos and keep on scrolling. They need to see this.

Reblog this or just stop following me

[ifiknewiwouldtellyou]

I had seen the first picture of the church, but not the second.

I went to a “Cancel Canada Day” event and burst into tears - not because I was surprised to learn of the unmarked graves (survivors told us they were there. Our government pushed it aside, and we let them), but because seeing all the people gathered in mourning drove it home: They. Were. Children.

This is my country’s legacy - and it’s not history. The last schools closed during my lifetime. My Father went to school with students who lived at the local residential school, after it was changed to a boarding house (read: holding centre) for indigenous youth who went to local schools.

They were all children, injured, abused, and killed in my country’s attempt to erase them. I want the world to see this and hold the state accountable to *active* reconciliation> I mean we could at least truly adopt UNDRIP in action instead of words for god’s sake.
