I am Iman Al-Kurdi, a young woman from the besieged Gaza Strip.

I suffer from a neurological condition; whenever I felt distressed, I would insert pins into my hands.

There are currently over 400 pins embedded in my hands and throughout my body.

I lost my home due to this war, and I have gone a long time without the neurological treatments I need.

These treatments are very expensive, and life in the displacement shelters has been incredibly difficult for me.

I ask for your help to realize my dream of saving my family and rebuilding our destroyed home for their sake.

I also need help saving myself—first by obtaining my necessary medical treatments, and then by securing the funds to travel abroad for medical care to have all the pins removed from my body.

Please help me, even if only with your prayers; please do not forget me.
