I write these words with a broken heart. To those who read this and choose to ignore it, you can simply scroll past, but I am living through the most difficult moments of my life. My husband is slowly dying before my eyes. Due to a severe head and jaw injury, he has been unable to eat or drink for over a week, his weight has dropped to just 39 kilograms, and he is suffering from severe, life-threatening malnutrition.
The doctors confirmed he needs urgent surgery, but we can't afford the operation and treatment. I feel helpless watching him weaken day by day, while time is running out.💔
I'm not asking for the impossible; I'm simply asking for a chance to save his life. Please, if you can't donate, don't hesitate to share our story. It might reach someone who can give him a new lease on life.💔🙏
there are still a lot of errors I want to fix, and the letters J, Q, X and Z are still unknown, but oh my god am I happy that I actually did this
I'm going to make a full dragontongue compilation and guide, that's what I made this for - I just have some more instances of dragontongue to gather and a lot of fact checking and extra research to do /lh
Please don't scroll past this post. My account is still heavily restricted, and the reach of my posts has dropped dramatically. Donate if you can, or share and quote this post. It may reach someone who can help save what is left of my family.
making a new post for samah and her baby ammar @ammar-family24 as a compilation of their multiple posts
samah’s original campaign and account are shared by 90-ghost, but it was shut down as her organiser’s bank account was deactivated
proof samah asked me to use my paypal / ko-fi account here
starryeyedgiant is the ko-fi link used to raise funds for ammar's weekly digoxin injection - he needs this on time every week, or he will need a more intensive $3k+ injection in addition to this one to avoid his heart giving out
unfortunately, this is still a temporary measure and we urgently need to evacuate him in order to get him heart surgery in egypt, or he will still die as the injection does damage his heart over time

acquisitioninitialization is where ammar's food needs go - currently, the doctor has recommended that he start eating solid food rather than just milk, so this is raising money for some fruits and meat for him

systemprotocol is currently being used to raise funds for buying winter clothes and a blanket for ammar - at time of writing the focus is on buying him one set of winter clothes, as he is outgrowing all the clothes he currently has

samah's gofundme campaign is focusing on raising the money for purchasing two passports so that she and ammar may leave for egypt. currently passports are $8k in cash per person
this will let her finally get him the heart surgery he desperately needs - as mentioned, the digoxin is only a temporary measure and the longer ammar is on it, the more it will also damage his heart. he can't take the injection for much longer
we really need this money in three months - this means by january.

adopts for donating
pwyw commissions for donating
the current cash conversion fee is 40%, everything is thus priced accordingly. breakdowns for prices are under the cut
for injection:
the base amount for the injection is $500, the $250 in cash now needs us to have $416.70, and therefore samah requires $666.70 in hand. the paypal fee will require us to have $952.40, and the ko-fi fee will require us to raise $1003 in total
the new transportation cost of $130 becomes $216.70 due to the cash conversion. the paypal fee will need us to have $309.60, and the ko-fi fee will need us to raise $325.90
the fever-reducing medicine is $15, which becomes $25 due to the cash commission. paypal's fee will require $35.71, and the ko-fi fee will need us to have $37.59
this means that in total, we now need to raise $1367
for food: samah has found a deal that will allow her to buy fruits and meat for $200 - and only half of it needs to be paid in cash.
half is $100 -> cash converted 40% = $166.70
$166.70 + $100 = $266.70 in hand
30% paypal fee = $381 needs to be sent for her to receive the correct amount
5% ko-fi fee = $402 needs to be raised total
for clothes / blanket:
one set of winter clothes is $110, while the blanket is $235
$110 -> cash converted 40% = $183.30
30% paypal fee = $261.90 to be sent to her
5% ko-fi fee = $276 to be raised total
for gofundme / passport:
currently, the rate she needs to pay is $8000 in cash for just the passport for each person - despite the fact that ammar is a baby, this is now the amount she needs to pay. so that is $16,000
the 55% cash conversion rate is slated to become 40% on 8th november, and it is quite likely that we will no longer need to use the paypal which asks for a 30% commission fee to get this money to samah
therefore, for now assuming that only the cash conversion fee needs to be accounted for, this would be $26,670 that we need to raise
a very cold winter storm hit samah 2 weeks ago and ammar was completely defenseless for it. it made his condition worse as no one raised the funds for him to buy any clothes.
ammar urgently needs winter clothes for this as well as underwear. samah needs three sets of clothes for him, but i have kept the goal small to let us focus on materially getting at least one set so that ammar will not freeze to death in the tent
the price calculation for the clothes is listed under the cut of the original post but the price for the underwear + cost of travel will be listed under this one - this is on systemprotocol
$377 / $535
unfortunately, the price for the injection at starryeyedgiant has also required another adjustment
due to ammar's weakness from his ongoing medical conditions, the doctor has told samah he needs an immune globulin injection throughout the winter to boost his immune system and protect him from winter illnesses
this injection costs $350 in cash and he will need it every week all winter, which makes the price we have to raise for him astronomically high - more than it's ever been before. he didn't need this last winter because he wasn't so sickly then. please understand that this is the toll not treating his conditions properly has taken
$48 / $2244
samah and i also had a discussion and there is the possibility of being able to get the passports at half the price first, and pay for the rest later.
we aren't sure if this will be a possibility that will work or not, but in anticipation for the possibility i have now changed the gofundme goal to be half the price of 2 passports, as well as the fee for coordinating travel across the border
$8,226 / $24,730
all adjusted calculations are under the cut
for underwear:
one pair of underwear is $20, we are buying two for now
$40 -> cash conversion fee 40% = $66.67
30% paypal fee = $95.24 to be sent to her
5% ko-fi fee = $100.30 to be raised
underwear [$101] + winter clothes [$276] = $377
30% paypal fee = $150 is what she has stated she needs me to send after fees, this is being accepted without cash conversion
5% ko-fi fee = $158
clothes [$377] + transport costs [$158] = $535
for medicine:
$350 for immune globulin injection
$350 -> cash conversion fee 40% = $583.30
30% paypal fee = $833.30 to be sent to her
5% ko-fi fee = $877.20 to be raised
immune globulin injection [$877] + rest of injection costs [$1367] = $2244 total
for passports:
currently, the rate she needs to pay is $8000 in cash for just the passport for each person - despite the fact that ammar is a baby, this is now the amount she needs to pay. so that is $16,000
half of that price would just be $8000 again, and the co-ordination fees for travel would only need to be paid for samah. the co-ordination fee is not going to be more than $2000
this is going through a bank account with international banking, so there is neither paypal fees nor ko-fi fees. i am unclear if international banking has fees, but for now this means the total amount to raise is $16,670
unfortunately, $117 of the money we had raised for ammar's injection next week had to be used to buy medicine for him, as he had an adverse side-effect to some vaccines babies at his age range needed to be given
we have 4 more days after this to raise the money for his injection
$6 / $535
we also were able to raise a little bit of money for ammar's winter clothes, and this is greatly appreciated
$8,749 / $24,730
we received no more donations to the gofundme today, but we have received a little bit more otherwise, and this is much appreciated
we were given some more donations, but unfortunately also had to use a little more of the money - the total amount needed was $169.70, as some of the fees weren't accounted for previously
samah has indicated the cash commission fee has increased from 40% to 45% as well, though we also have a new paypal whose fee is only 25% - this makes the money we need total only about $7 more, thank god
i have put the re-calculated amount for this under the cut, and we now have 3 more days left to raise this money
for injection:
the base amount for the injection is $500, the $250 in cash now needs us to have $454.50, and therefore samah requires $704.50 in hand. the paypal fee will require us to have $939.30, and the ko-fi fee will require us to raise $988.70 in total
the new transportation cost of $130 becomes $236.40 due to the cash conversion. the paypal fee will need us to have $315.20, and the ko-fi fee will need us to raise $331.80
the fever-reducing medicine is $15, which becomes $27.27 due to the cash commission. paypal's fee will require $36.36, and the ko-fi fee will need us to have $38.27
this means that in total for this injection, we now need to raise $1358
$350 for immune globulin injection
$350 -> cash conversion fee 45% = $636.40
25% paypal fee = $848.50 to be sent to her
5% ko-fi fee = $893.20 to be raised
immune globulin injection [$893.20] + rest of injection costs [$1358] = $2251 total
unfortunately, if you have clicked through to our ko-fis, you may have noticed that they no longer display.
i think it is possible someone has reported them - regardless, they are currently unpublished. ko-fi wants us to display evidence of how we are using our earnings, and while we have submitted such things, they say it will take up to 7 business days to get back to us
obviously, ammar cannot wait for that length of time for his injection. therefore, though it isn't ideal, we have found an alternative website that can accept payments to my friend's paypal
Samah and her baby son Ammar are currently living under siege in the Gaza Strip, much like millions of other people. Ammar is extremely ill
$0 / $2251
unfortunately, though this is the best option we have available, it automatically asks for repeat payments. you can just discontinue the donation immediately after the first time, as viewed below, and i hope this will still be a helpful alternative to let us obtain the money.
Can I make a one-time donation?
One-time donations aren't properly supported yet, but you can discontinue your donation immediately after initiating the first payment.
if there are other alternative sites to ko-fi you think we can use while we're trying to see if ko-fi will even let us continue, feel free to let us know
$8,790 / $24,730
thank you for the continued donations to the gofundme campaign as well, it's very appreciated!
Hello, I'm Ahmed, 23 years old. I was studying computer science at the Islamic University in Gaza before the war. I aspired to build a brigh
Hello friends, I thank you very much for your continuous support, but right now I am in urgent need of you and your help. We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, which requires a lot of expenses, and there has been a significant rise in prices.
I also need to pursue my dream after losing everything. I need your support greatly—I need more than $1,500 to pay my university fees so I can receive my certificate and apply for scholarships.
You can find the images below the post.
Therefore, I am in great need of your help. I support my family, and at the same time, I am trying to achieve myself and continue my education.
