Sami and his family's last dream: escaping the hell of war on Gaza in search of safety

Sami's story begins in Gaza, where he was born and raised in a humble home. He lived a quiet life with his wife and their three children: Jud, Lin, and Misk,🍉 along with his ailing mother,and father who suffers from chronic thyroid🙏 and parathyroid disease, and his four siblings: Hamza, Bilal, Muhammad, and Layan. Sami worked hard in his modest shop, selling car spare parts to provide his family with a decent, stable life.😔

But everything changed with the war. In a dark, heartbreaking moment, their home was completely destroyed. With no shelter to protect them from bombings and displacement, Sami and his family were forced to move repeatedly, traveling from north Gaza to the south 🏠.The constant displacement took a heavy toll, exhausting them physically and mentally, leaving them in a relentless cycle of fear and uncertainty.

Things worsened when Sami’s only source of income vanished, as his shop was destroyed in the bombings 💔💼. Life became even harder; they now live in a worn-out tent that fails to protect them from the searing heat of summer or the biting cold of winter ⛺🌞🥶, sharing in both hardship and sorrow.

Since their displacement, Sami’s mother’s health has deteriorated due to the lack of essential medicines. She urgently needs surgery, but the shortage of medical resources has made things critical, and her condition is worsening every day 💊

Despite these overwhelming challenges, Sami clings to his dream of taking his family away from this nightmare, searching for a place where they can find safety, education, and healthcare, free from the horrors of war 🌍🕊️. Sami fights daily for a better future for his family, holding onto fragments of hope in every moment, determined to provide them with a life of dignity, far from destruction and fear.

We humbly ask for your donations to support Sami and his family. Even a small contribution can make a huge difference in helping them rebuild a safe and dignified life away from continuous suffering 💙🙏.

every time i see someone call kirk and spock the oldest ship, i'm filled with the urge to go "hmm actually the holmes and watson girlies have been here for a hundred years now", and i refrain because i know the natural conclusion of this game is gilgamesh and enkidu

doctors hate her! This woman is experiencing symptoms that might point to a health problem and wants doctors to do something about it

Anyway, able bodied people need to stop blaming people’s chronic pain on their diets.

Like no mom, my hips aren’t in excruciating pain because I ate a couple cookies last night.

Some photos from te hikoi mo te tiriti from Tuesday! The culmination of a nine day March coming from the North and South Islands to meet at parliament.

-the shirt I hastily painted for the March. It says ‘toitū te tiriti’ which translates to protect/honour the treaty.

- a photo of the crowd gathering at Waitangi park an hour before we left. I took the photo specifically the sign saying ‘have mana like Hana’

-my sweaty post march face featuring my te tino rangatiratanga flag eye makeup.

taikawaititi: Mauri ora! ✊🏽💥 Incredible turnout for the hīkoi on parliament. So proud to see such an awesome display of mana, unity, resilience and resistance. Feeling homesick from abroad but happy the whanau is repping. Honour the treaty and don't go messing with it! Ka whawhai tonu mātou, ake, ake, ake! 🔥🔥🔥

This is a picture from Stuff New Zealand (one of two major national newspapers), taken an hour ago. This is a kilometer from Parliament. At this point the Parliament grounds were already full. Can you see the front of the hikoi NO, can you see the back of the hikoi NO.

Current estimates range from 15,000 to 50,000 people. Our total population is 6 million and a lot of those are offshore (some of them are protesting in Sydney and London because a lot of us are there). This is potentially 1% of our ENTIRE in-country population. On a weekday. Turning out to protest David Seymour's stupid, divisive, ugly bill.
