°°Hi, my name is Fatima Mohammad, 32 years old.
I am a Palestinian citizen from Gaza, mother of two children and pregnant. I have a bachelor's degree in pharmacy.

I am reaching out to you with a heavy heart and a plea for help to evacuate my family out of Gaza.

Who am I ???
I am a pregnant mother of two children: a 7-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy who has learning and speech difficulties (autism spectrum). He hasn’t been able to attend his rehabilitation center for a year due to the war, and his condition is deteriorating now. My heart breaks for him, but there’s no solution.
Now we are living in a tent for a whole year suffer from all type of Humiliation, oppression,disease, no good food, no healthy water and no gas for cooking.

I am a pharmacist who lost my private business just seven months after opening my pharmacy. Trust me, I haven’t paid off the debts related to it yet. It had a bright future, but it was brutally destroyed, just like my home.



I used to have a small project making beautiful and attractive cakes, which I marketed online. However, after my home was robbed and destroyed, all my expensive equipment disappeared in the blink of an eye.

My husband also lost his job at the pharmaceutical company where he was employed. He holds a bachelor's degree in biochemistry and a diploma in pharmacy assistant. He is dedicated and highly skilled in his work, but unfortunately, he lost his job as well. I speak to you here as a pregnant mother, with a heart weighed down by burdens, and my children, whose future, education, childhood, and smiles have all been stolen. I hope that you can be a source of help for us. A little from you means a lot to us. Please do not hesitate to donate, no matter how small the amount is.

~About Our suffering which started since October 7th,2023. We were informed at night to evacuate our house and move as far away as possible because a house next to us was being bombed. We went out at night with our young children to escape death but we did not succeed in finding shelter that night, so we had to spend it on the street sidewalk. In the morning we returned to our house. It was gloomy, scary and destroyed. We did not find anything to take with us. We went to an UNRWA shelter which was later bombed. I lost 65 family members. Our young children, who have seen the bodies of many young children, often tell us that they do not want to die.


°°I have been supporting some of my family members and some people due to my work as a pharmacist in Gaza. Then we went to a school for shelter but it was also asked to evacuate.


°°We left the north of the country in fear and panic from the famine, fear, bombing, destruction and epidemics and went to the south, specifically to Deir al-Balah, but what awaited us was much worse.
We went to a shelter in a school, but the place was very crowded, with no water, no food, and no basic hygiene, so epidemics spread quickly. We got hepatitis, skin diseases, and it was very difficult in the absence of treatment, care, lack of medicines and good food. Unfortunately, we spent the worst days of our lives there.



°° We were then forced to move to Rafah. We lived in a dilapidated tent in a desert area full of insects, scorpions, snakes, and there was a little water and scarce food, and what was available was twenty times its original price. We ran out of money and could only find our daily sustenance from some rare aid and canned food that destroyed our stomachs and the stomachs of our children. We saw them wither day after day ,in addition to the bombing, fear, and destruction around us.
We lived in these conditions for about six months, experiencing all kinds of suffering. Then we were forced to leave on foot to escape the death that was behind us. They were chasing us.
We went to another camp in Khan Younis, in a worse situation than before. No place to hide and no safety. We were displaced about 17 times from one place to another until we found a dilapidated tent that shelters us until now. We have been living in it for another 5 months. That is, a whole year was spent fleeing and hiding in tents... Our children suffer from the lack of hygiene, scarcity of food, polluted water and skin diseases.







Our fear now is much greater. Our children have lost their right of education for a whole school year, maybe two years now. They have lost their childhood, their laughter, their joy, their passion, their dreams. Our hearts break for them for losing their right to live. They have lost all their pets that they used to care for due to the lack of food for them and the spread of diseases among the animals as well. This has broken their hearts. Please help us to evacuate from this place until we regain our composure. All your help will save us from what we are in now.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity and compassion.
Sincerely,
Fatima.
