Trapped Family in Gaza Appeals for Help to Survive
A Plea for Help from Gaza: A Family Seeking Safety
Hello, I am reem shehab, married to fahed sshehab, and we have five wonderful children.
We live in the midst of the ongoing hellish war in Gaza, trapped between walls of fear and despair.
We struggle daily to survive in an environment filled with threats and dangers.
I lost our only source of livelihood when the war destroyed my husband's gym, which he built with dedication and hard work. My children Sahar, Dana, Mona, Malak and Yahya have been deprived of education after their schools were destroyed, severely threatening their future. , which increased the state of hopelessness and hopelessness in which we live.
My children live in constant anxiety because of the bombing and war going on in our area. My husband lost his source of income, leaving us unable to provide for our family's needs and safety. The war destroyed our home, forcing us to flee repeatedly and making us homeless.
We are now facing great difficulty in providing a safe place to live, clean clothes, and food for our children. In addition, our children have contracted diseases such as measles, and our daughter Dana was diagnosed with viral hepatitis.
Our only hope now is to escape this ongoing nightmare and find a safe haven for our family. However, this requires exorbitant financial costs.
We urgently appeal for your moral and financial assistance to cover the necessary costs for escaping to a safe environment, where we can build a better future for our children and ensure our family's safety.
We are in desperate need of your support. Any donation, no matter how small, can help save our lives. Thank you for your attention and support during these harsh times.

Writing again
Well what do ya know? I actually felt like working on my dang story for a change. Even though it is just character fleshing and not the actual story. Every little bit counts right? At least I hope it does. I suggest using one of those character questionnaires if you really want to figure them out.
