This is not just a story, but a cry from under the tents.

My name is Maha Abdel, and this isn't just a story; it's a cry from under the tents. We are a family of 12, living today without a roof, without walls, without anything to protect us from the winter's cold or the summer's heat. All we have now is a tattered tent that barely shields us from the wind, floods us with rain, and gives us no sense of security. We used to live a simple life, but one filled with the warmth of family and a small home to shelter us. Then the war came, and time turned against us, turning our lives into an endless hell. We lost our home, we lost loved ones, and today we are losing our health and dignity, day by day. *Mona, a nine-year-old girl,* was playing with the neighbors' children when shrapnel hit her head. She didn't understand what war meant, but she understood the pain, and every day she asks us, "When will the sounds of explosions stop?" We can't even afford painkillers. Aboud no longer sleeps; he shivers every night from the cold. We try to wrap him in worn-out blankets, but the frost is merciless. Hikmat, our eldest, tries to be strong, but he cries whenever he looks at his brothers without food or medicine. We have no clean water, not enough food, and no sanitary toilet. The women have nowhere safe, and the children are losing their childhood. I appeal to you today because we can no longer endure this. We have nothing: no work, no income, not even hope except in what you can offer. Your donation is not just a number; it's a lifeline. With your help, we might be able to buy a new tent, a dry mattress, food to feed a hungry child, or even medicine to ease Mona's pain. From the heart of the tent, from the depths of my need, I write to you with tears streaming down my face. Help us... to survive.
