"We Haven't Known Joy Yet..."
My name is Shahd, a girl from Rafah, a city that has tasted war and pain since the day I was born. Near the Philadelphi Corridor, life was simple yet filled with love. I dreamed of finishing my university studies, finding a job that would make me proud, and building a happy family with the one I love.
I married Badr, the love of my life. Heโs a pharmacist who owned a small pharmacy where he spent hours helping others and easing their pain. Our wedding was modestโno grand celebrations, just love binding us together and hopes for a brighter future.
But war does not let dreams flourish. Just days after our wedding, an order came: "Evacuate immediately!" We left everything behindโour memories, our hard work, our home. Then came the airstrikes. Our house was destroyed, along with Badrโs pharmacy, where he worked tirelessly, and even my university, where I had spent years pursuing my education, was turned to rubble.
Weโve moved from place to place, city to city, fleeing the death that seems to chase us. Now, we live in a tent in Khan Younis. A small tent that barely shelters us from the cold and rain. Badr tries to stay strong, but I see him every night staring into the void, as if asking himself, "Why did all of this happen?"
Weโre living in unbearable conditions. Food is scarce, water barely sufficient, and my dream of motherhood is on hold because we donโt even have enough to sustain ourselves. We havenโt had the chance to celebrate our marriage or feel a single day of happiness.
Today, Iโm reaching out to you, with a heart weighed down by pain, to ask for your help. We need everything: food, water, medicine, and clothing. We need a chance to rebuild, to dream again, to live a life worthy of our humanity.
Every donation, no matter how small, can make a huge difference in our lives. Every share of our story could reach someone with the ability to help. You are the only hope we have after God.
Please help us build a new life in the midst of this darkness.
The donation link is here and in the bio as well.
