<div>The story started on October 7th.
</div>
<div>After the destruction of our house and my burns, then my diagnosis of "epidemic liver" as a result of contamination and infection in Gaza.
</div>
<div>I'll introduce you to my story after 208 days of the war:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I'm Mohammed Abu-shamala from Gaza. Palestine, 27 years old , I graduated from the university in 2018, majoring in media , I have been working in the field of content writing for 5 years, including organizations and institutions inside and outside Palestine.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My life was stable and I lived with my family in our beautiful house full of memories, and I was pursuing my dreams and aspirations to build a small family and develop my work and accomplish what I was planning in my home, until the war came on October 7th, 2023 and everything changed and the journey of agony and suffering began.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My suffering began on October 8, when the planes destroyed the tower in which our own company is located and lost all the work, electronics and other equipment that we bought and founded over four years of our own money and hope to become a leading company in the world of information and technology technology.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The next morning, 9 October, the warplanes began to target and destroy the buildings adjacent to our house in a crazy and random manner, so that we had to leave the house and go to a safer place to survive our lives and those of our children, to be surprised that our house was among the houses destroyed by the planes and we lost everything we had in it. The effect of destroying the house on our hearts was the most severe because we lost safety and beautiful memories and lost the place where we had been sheltered since that day.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/79919069_1714870198984257_r." width="100%" />
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It has been more than 208 days since this violent and devastating war, in which I lost my job and my family's home and the greatest loss has been the loss of more than 190 people from my family as well as the loss of many friends because this war has been the longest and most violent of us for decades.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have been displaced with my family for more than five places since the beginning of the war, and all the places we went have been bombed and destroyed. The most difficult of them were in the city of Khanions, where we were trapped for two consecutive days inside the house to which we were horribly and terribly displaced. I was burned in the foot as a result of this siege because we were bombarded.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a result of the poor humanitarian conditions inside the tents of the displaced persons due to contaminated water, unhealthy food, waste and wastewater accumulation, I was diagnosed with hepatitis "and its severe symptoms began to haunt me until I lost about 22 kilos of weight because of the lack of necessary health care and the lack of medicines within the Gaza Strip due to the blockade and the severe war.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I don't know what I've done to live up to so many difficult, bloody and sad events and to move from one place to another in search of security for me and my family, and every time we have been exposed to more difficult and worse events, we're still trying to survive our lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/79919069_1714871246307039_r." width="100%" />
<div>It hurts me to feel helpless and confused, and I don't know what to say to the kids and what to answer their questions:
</div>
<div>Are we going home? Did our house get bombed and our toys went inside?
</div>
<div>Why is this happening to us? When are we going back to school? Are we gonna stay a lot inside this tent?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This war has wiped out everything that is beautiful within us, robbed us of our most basic right to live safely, and destroyed our aspirations and hopes for a better future with stability and success in working as the rest of the world ' s people.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Material loss isn't everything and survival is the ultimate goal, but losing everything you have is difficult and makes you feel helpless and completely crippled in life, so I decided to make a call to all the free people in this world to support me and my family to overcome this ordeal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All I'm looking for now is to help me overcome the crisis caused to me by this war without guilt, this is an appeal to humanity and to living conscience by helping me overcome the effects of this war, from loss of work and loss of home and overcoming the accumulated debts caused by the war because of the expenses and the cost of living in this war, yes, we lost everything in this war.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/79919069_1714872598772060_r." width="100%" />
<div>I have concerns and concerns about what awaits me after the war puts in place and questions that I have no answer to:
</div>
<div>Will I be able to rebuild my future destroyed by the war?
</div>
<div>Will I be able to find a house to go to with my family after the war? How long will it take me to get back to work and buy my own equipment for work? You will be able to return to my normal life before October 7th after losing everything in this war.
</div>
<div>All these questions and ideas I have, and I can't know if I'm gonna survive inside Gaza, and will I survive the constant bombing of us over and over again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But I am armed with faith, and I have every confidence and confidence in your support and assistance so that I may overcome my fears and overcome these compelling circumstances. I can return to life through your support and your support for me and my family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>My friend</strong> in Belgium,<strong> Qossay Jihad Mohammad Omran</strong>, will receive the donations on his bank account and transfer them to me in Gaza via Western Union.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With your support, I can restore hope to me and my family, and with your help we can continue and survive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you all.
</div>
