its so ruffover

I'm here after a long break, due to many circumstances, it's been a very difficult period, guys.

I hope everyone is well and safe, I miss you, I am here now because I need you at this time, as you know, my family and I live in a house we have rented and at the beginning of every new month I collect the costs here with your help, so that I can pay the rent and maintain the shelter that shelters us all.

I've done it many times, and you guys haven't let me down, but honestly I don't get much attention lately, and that's why I'm not always active here, but I love you from the bottom of my heart. My family has always been fine thanks to you, please guys, we need you so much now.

I only need $700 so I can pay the rent and keep my family safe.

Any delay from the payment date will be kicked out on the street homeless, life is very, very difficult, I use you guys.

Payment date will be on 10/06/2026

I will not prolong much, this is the purpose of the publication, as for the circumstances I went through, I will not bother anyone here, whoever wanted that, I can write to him privately and reveal all the details, I was injured two days ago, and I hope to be fine in the coming days.

Jonathan Joss was an Indigenous, gay man who was murdered on the first day of Pride month as well as Indigenous History Month. He died protecting his trans husband. Homophobia and racism aren’t marks of the past, and this is a heart breaking reminder of that.

3. My latest blog titled "Traumatized in Ireland While my Family is Facing Death and Starvation in Gaza" shared widely HERE

The short video will give you a quick glimpse of my story: 1. A young university lecturer in Gaza

2. Then displaced with my family and losing our house

3. Then traveled to Ireland to study and try to support and evacuate my family.

Every night I sleep in Ireland while my family sleeps under bombardment face starvation, fear and the cold of winter in tents.

People sleep to rest. I sleep to see nightmares.

Every night feels like a horror movie I must live, not watch. I wake up tired, shaken, and broken by the images my mind creates.

I had an amazing stable life with my family in Gaza before the war turned our world upside down.

I was a young, ambitious lecturer at the Islamic University of Gaza, teaching English and linguistics. I loved to motivate and empower my students so they can reach their full potential.

When the war broke out, I was displacement with my family multiple times in places I did not know existed in the Gaza Strip. Sometimes we literally ran for our lives under heavy bombardment and learned what a near-death experience actually meant.

Five months into the war, my Irish university managed to get me out of Gaza. Ever since I evacuated and left my entire family in Gaza (parents, siblings, nephews, nieces), I woke up every day so tired from horrible horrible horrible nightmares, wishing to end my life.

But then I remember: If I give up, who will help my family survive? Who will help me get them out when the crossing opens again?

I saw the constant bombardment every day live in the news, and my family was dispersed in different places in the Gaza Strip, running for their lives, struggling to survive.

The misery and suffering continue until today after we lost our house and the cold of winter if freezing them all, especially my elderly parents and young nephews and nieces.

HOWEVER...

Hard times do not only create strong people; they also reveal the goodness and humanity in others. And Gaza needs the world’s goodness now more than ever.

My family lost their home. They now live in tents, shivering in the cold. Rainwater enters every time it rains. They have no electricity, no clean water, no cooking gas, and no safety. Survival itself has become a battle.

I have been dedicating all my efforts to helping my family survive in the current situation in Gaza and apply for reunification visas with the support of my college and friends here in Ireland.

Every single member of my family counts the seconds until the day we all reunify in Ireland and live a safe, normal life like we have been dreaming for more than two years

This can only be possible with your kindness, support and humanity.

Please consider donating if you can, share our story, reblog our post, and amplify our voice. You have no idea how much you can help in getting my family out of the living hell of Gaza to safety.

When the world becomes numb to Palestinian suffering, please choose not to turn away.

Please 'follow' me to stay updated!

Thank you for reading. Thank you for caring.

"This is my daughter, Israa. She should be crying over a broken toy, not because I have to divide a single piece of bread to make it last another day. This is our reality on March 4th.

The Situation is Critical: All crossings are closed. Markets are empty, and prices have tripled. Our 7 families are trapped in tents, fighting to survive a total blockade. Israa’s tears are the face of 13 children in our circle waking up to empty plates today.

How You Can Save Them Today: Your support isn't just a donation—it is a literal lifeline for children fighting a silent battle for survival.

$5 (The Price of a Coffee): Buys a bag of bread to keep our children fed for two days.

"$50 (A Week of Essentials): Secures vital grains and clean water for one of our 7 families. In a world of skyrocketing prices, this is their only shield against hunger.

The Power of a Reblog: If you cannot donate, your share is our only visibility. On Tumblr, a reblog is the difference between a child being seen or being forgotten.

Tonight, a single piece of bread is the only boundary between a child’s cry and a child’s sleep. Please help us bridge that gap before the markets go completely dark."

🔗 DONATE HERE

Many people write about us with beautiful words, and express our pain through poetry and music, but the truth is, that doesn’t ease what we are going through. We don’t just need words, we need real support to keep going.

Every day we try to hold on, but the exhaustion keeps growing, and the fear never leaves us, especially with my father’s illness and his constant need for treatment.

Please donate to my family . If you are able to help, please don’t let this be just something you read and move on from.

Thank you to everyone who truly cares and tries to help.

His father is in critical condition and needs to go to urgent care. They need our support right now. Share, and please, even if it is just a few dollars, give to this family. Any amount helps, no matter how small. It doesn’t matter how much you give, but if you give at all.

Help my family survive and start a new life

Hello everyone, thank you for taking a moment to read our story.

I am Hazem Shawish, and I am trying to save my family from this war.

We live in Gaza, where we face significant challenges due to the current situation.

My family consists of 11 members, including my mother, two daughters, four sons, and three children.

Majd's burns are worse than initially thought and Yousef is finding it very difficult to get medications and ointment for his child's injuries. Majd has already been in-and-out of the hospital for practically the entirety of this genocide for his respiratory condition and now he is facing complications or worse because of the burns.

You can find proof of his injury here. Please help out this family in any way you can.

verification: #406 (the ButterflyEffect verified fundraisers list)

Their current accounts: @youseffamilys-blog @saveyouseffamily @khadigamajd @yousef-family

Majd's condition is still very difficult and Yousef needs to buy medications for his little son! Please, do what you can to help. Give if able, share and boost if not.

the only reason ammar is still alive right now is because a doctor took pity on him and bought him the injection before we raised enough money. the extended delays made ammar have his first seizure.

israel has also been bombing the hospital again, photos on this post - and their planes + drones are still circling the hospital now, threatening to shoot people. ammar, samah, and mahmoud are all outside in the courtyard and will be immediately wounded if they do so

we need to raise $1471 by tuesday 4 pm at gazan time, which is roughly about 50 hours from now. this is for his food, as well as his injection, and the iv fluids. this is now the bare minimum required to be urgently raised

if he doesn't get this by tuesday, he would need an intensive injection that costs $6k+ total alongside the fact he would need extra medicine and this original injection too

i have nothing else to say. donate as little as $3 or $5 for him, or you'll be letting him die. this is extremely time sensitive.

$0 / $3030

adopts for donating

pwyw commissions for donating

further offers for donating

thank you to the people who generously donated, but we only raised $30 today

though the immune globulin injection is not yet delayed, the most pressing issue is that israel is still bombing the hospital

here is a video that samah provided from the latest news reporters, there continue to be airstrikes and the israeli planes have not stopped flying over the hospital

$1483 is still needed to be raised total, $1107 of which will be for ammar's immune globulin injection (and paying for the remainder of last week's iv fluids)

WE NEED THIS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE SO THEY CAN EVACUATE

THE LONGER THEY STAY AT THIS HOSPITAL, THE MORE THEY RISK DEATH

THE HOSPITAL HAS ALREADY BEEN BOMBED WHILE THEY WERE HERE. THEY WERE LUCKY TO SURVIVE

please take this seriously and donate as much or as little as you can, but donate and encourage all your friends to donate even a small amount if possible - even $3 or $5 helps, because it will build up, but it requires many people to help

the immune globulin injection needs to be taken before 10 am wednesday gaza time, about 20 hours from now, but i am begging you not to wait until then.

ammar's birthday will also be on thursday, if that can additionally move you. please let him return home to celebrate it, instead of being forced to stay in a hospital courtyard, where he might die before he manages to reach that date.
