My name is Nadin. I never imagined I would write something like this. I’ve always been someone who kept her worries quiet, someone who believed that even the hardest days could be endured with patience and faith. But right now, I am reaching out — not because I want to, but because I need to.

I am a wife, a mother, and one of many women in Gaza trying to survive days that feel like they have no end. There was a short time — a brief ceasefire — where we thought things might start to heal. Where the sound of war faded for just long enough to let us breathe. But that moment is gone now, and the fear has returned louder than before.

My days are filled with uncertainty, and my nights with prayer. We have lost so much. Our home was damaged, our sense of safety taken from us. But through all of this, I try to keep going. I try to hold on to what little peace I can create with my hands, my words, and my love.

I am not asking for much. Just a little help to keep our lives from falling further apart. To fix the small things — a cracked wall, a leaking roof, the pieces of daily life that help us hold on to dignity.

This campaign isn’t just about survival. It’s about holding on to what makes us human in a place that keeps trying to take that away. It’s about showing my daughter — even though I won’t mention her name here — that the world didn’t forget us.

If you’ve ever felt powerless in the face of suffering, please know that even the smallest gesture can carry great meaning. A kind word. A shared post. A quiet donation. These things remind us that we’re not alone.

I am still here. Still holding on. Still believing that people out there — people like you — still care.

She DID catch him off guard. What can I say? Sally is always two steps ahead. 😌 lol. Anyways, hey guys! I've finished the comic [the one that won the poll few months ago] I wanted to kind of test my comic abilities now and see how far I've become, I'm quite actually proud of myself with the outcome!♡ lowkey wanted to pay an homage to the birthday comic I did a few years ago, where Sally kissed Jeremiah ON HIS CHEEK for the first time. 🤭🩷 now she licked his cheek for the first time... maybe a few months later, she will hold his hands for the first time?... lol! 🙈

I hope you guys like this one and enjoy it as much as I did drawing it [it was pain, but always worth it] ♡
