And I'll Sing the Dead a Melody

Yesterday, Abdul Rahman's mother passed away.

He [@abdulrahman-family1] is beyond devastated, and this is his greatest loss. The earth feels heavy, the tears won't stop falling... Imagine losing somebody who is everything to you. This is how Abdul Rahman felt about his dear mother. He said he can't imagine life without her. Imagine the empty bed next to him, where she used to be...

A few days ago, she was hospitalized. They gave her sedatives, and Abdul Rahman was told that "she doesn't need to be awake now." After that, they discovered that the cancer had spread to her bones, and she never woke up again. Imagine not even being able to say the last "I love you, and goodbye"... I am angry that they didn't tell him that there is nothing they can do and this is the last time he sees her awake!

I am also angry with all of the states and institutions like the World Health Organization that have failed her and him, and did not evacuate her as promised. The doctors promised she would be among the first patients evacuated. We literally begged institutions and states all over the world to evacuate her. They just let her die, knowingly...

And this hurts, this is the deepest betrayal by the world.

They let her die slowly in inhumane conditions... because of insufficient treatment in Gaza, she went through agonizing pain, unimaginable to you and me. My heart hurts so much, and is grieving together with Abdul Rahman's.

This is not just another fundraiser, I'm not going to ask you to share anything. I'm just asking you to read this and feel Abdul Rahman's pain and loss.

Because that pain and loss is not just his, but it is our loss. Our world is losing by letting kind hearts like them suffer in silence, our world has failed humanity, not just Gaza.

And let me add something...Abdul Rahman's mother didn't just die of cancer, but she was, I believe, murdered by Israel. In the recent independent study, uranium was found in Palestinian soil because of the forbidden type of weapons Israel has used. Because of that, there is a rise in aggressive cancers in Gaza, such as the gallbladder cancer she had.

For those who want to keep on supporting the family, here is the link to their fundraiser:

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Abdul Rahman's story is published in a well-known newspaper

We, activists from the Slovenian movement for Palestinian rights, have published Abdul Rahman's plea for evacuation in one of the most well-known newspapers in our country. With this, we aim to put political pressure on our leaders to evacuate students like Abdul Rahman from Gaza. In the article, we also described the failed medical evacuation of his mother, and we warned against repeating the same mistake again with Abdul Rahman's evacuation.

We keep fighting for his evacuation with hope in our hearts.🤞Please keep supporting Abdul Rahman and his family. 🙏

Link to the article (you can read it with a translator).

They need visibility.

If you donate $30 or more, I will do a free digital portrait for you.

i haven't seen many options for people outside to donate. easiest way is this fundraiser from the I Love Venezuela Foundation

you can also donate directly through zelle and binance to Organizacion Solo con Fe in barquisimeto, but !!! make sure to label it "donacion" so it can be correctly identified. everything will be used for relief in the affected zones.

lastly, Passagio is a Miami-based courier that's put a special fare of $4/lb for aid to be sent to venezuela. no profits will be made from this, that's strictly transportation costs. they're accepting: medicine, non-perishable food, hygiene products, clothing, essential supplies.

19-year-old Khalil Al Habil's liver and kidneys are failing. Shrapnel damage from the bombardment that killed his baby brother Omar has gone mostly untreated due to a lack of funds and resources. The ill effects of this damage have progressed to the point that the organs are losing their ability to function. Khalil urgently needs 3 rounds of treatment to combat the effects of his deteriorating liver and kidneys.

We've paid off the first round of treatments but Khalil has two treatments that he still needs. The second costs about $1,250 usd, but we haven’t made much progress in more than a month and his condition is getting progressively worse. We need to meet this second goal ASAP!!!

Current: $10,052 out of $10,407 usd (12 May)

Need to raise: $355 usd

The lethargy and fatigue caused by his deteriorating organ function only make reaching out more difficult. He is in very, very bad shape, and I’m extremely worried about him.

He has gone so long between sessions that he requires additional medications to sustain him between treatments. With a price of $1500 for the treatment for his failing organs, and $500 for supplementary medications, this is where we are for round 3:

Current: $11,354 out of $12,407 usd (28 June)

In addition to 15-year-old Nour’s ongoing health issues, Nour’s sister Noha recently developed a severe stomach ulcer due to an infection induced by drinking unsanitary water. This ulcer is causing Noha extreme pain and digestive issues, and if it is not treated very soon, will lead to internal bleeding. This ulcer has gone untreated in order to allot more funds for Nour’s ongoing nebulizer treatments, but it has progressed to the point of literally debilitating pain and serious complications. Let’s raise the cost of treatment ASAP so Nour can continue nebulizer treatments and Noha can live her life again!!

Current: $4,927 out of $5,290 usd (28 June)

Need: $363 usd

Deadline 6 July

💔 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. She is now suffering from severe exhaustion and constant pain.

After seeing a doctor, we were told that she urgently needs emergency back surgery. The doctors warned us that the operation should be performed within the next 7 days to prevent her condition from deteriorating further.

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

For many people, this may seem like a manageable amount. But for my family, trapped in the devastating conditions in Gaza, it is impossible. Every hour that passes brings more pain, more fear, and the risk of losing my mother.

I am begging you from the bottom of my heart: please help us save her.

Every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to giving my mother the surgery she desperately needs. If you are unable to donate, please share this post with your friends and family. Your support could reach someone who is able to help.

Please don’t let my mother’s condition become another tragedy that could have been prevented.

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