2) Many vapes contain diacetyl, which, when inhaled causes popcorn lung, or scarring of the lung

3) Ultrafine particles, when being inhaled, can be lodged in the trachea (not good!)

4) Ultrafine particles can also constrict the arteries in the lungs potentially causing A HEART ATTACK

Her condition is getting worse every day. Her body is collapsing because she has not yet received the urgent blood units and medical treatment she needs to survive.

I saw her lose consciousness after everything our daughter Lama has been going through. One moment she was standing with me and the next she collapsed in my arms. I cannot forget that moment.

I am not asking for comfort. I am telling you that I am losing my wife while I stand completely helpless beside her.

Every hour without treatment is bringing her closer to death. I can see it happening and I cannot stop it alone.

Please do not scroll past this. Do not wait until it becomes a message of loss.

She urgently needs treatment, blood units, and medical care right now.

Help us before it is too late. Your donation and share might be the reason she survives.

June 17th is our last day to raise $370, to save this young boy's life.

Ibrahim is 7 years old, living with his mother Maram and 2 brothers in Gaza, Palestine. On April 22nd, he was caught in an Isreali bombing that left him with life threatening injuries, that now constrict him to a hospital bed. He is scheduled for surgery on Thursday the 18th, but Maram's family is destitute, and I have been working to fundraise for the surgery money they need to keep Ibrahim alive. I am so incredibly grateful for all the kindness and help everyone has shown the last week, and especially 2 days, but the clock is ticking, and we cannot give up now, not when we are so close to success. This family needs us.

Maram still need's $370 to pay for Ibrahim's surgery. (Fundraiser linked here) (Vetted #575) and I'm worried that donations have started to slow down. Each person can only give so much, but that is why it is SO important this fundraiser reaches more, different people, who potentially CAN give. It's why I keep reblogging this post, hoping it might breach containment. I KNOW we can do this, if only we had more help.

Anyone who donates to Maram's campaign (here) and sends me proof of transaction, can receive art from me of whatever they would like. $1-9 will get you a colored sketch like the one above, $10+ will get you a full brush painting, which would usually be $50-60.

I don't know what to say to express my gratitude to everyone who has been following this, donating their own money or sharing the posts. I feel like a giant weight has been lifted off my chest. I can only imagine how Maram and her family feel. I don't even know what to say at this point. We've made a real difference.

Her name was Juniper Blessing, and she was just doing her laundry.
