🤍This is a signal boost for Fadi Ayyad and his family!🤍

My name is Fadi A. Ayyad, an 18-year old son of an extended Palestinian family from Northern Gaza, specifically from Al-Shujaiya , the most devastated area where the horrific war is now taking place.

Folks, meet Fadi: a displaced student living with his family in Gaza. Before their lives were uprooted, his father worked as a well-known English teacher, and his brothers were attending university studying toward their own degrees. Now, everything they once knew has been lost. They are exhausted; their daily lives are marked by struggle and fear.

They hope to evacuate their family of eight out of Gaza; so far, they have raised $24,382 USD raised of their $35,000 goal to do so.

Can you help them? Donate here!

In Fadi's own words:

I don’t want my dreams and ambitions to disappear. My only chance to realize such dreams is to leave Gaza as soon as possible to join the ongoing intensive classes offered for the Palestinian students who flee the war in Egypt. My dream will come true with your help. My older brothers have also lost their education at university and seemingly the war will kill everything we have been trying to build over years. It seems that our dreams and hopes will be a thing of the past.

Your donation will help secure this family's dreams, ensure their safety, and help them reclaim some of the life which was stolen from them.

If you cannot donate at this time, please follow Fadi at @aymanayyad82 (prev. aymanayyad81), share his posts, and read more of this family's story on their GFM page.

Any donation, no matter how small, makes a difference.

‼️EMERGENCY FUND: I need Help With Medical Bills And Equipment‼️

Howdy Y'all, please share my story with me at least a little, I am a Type 1 Diabetic. I was diagnosed in February 2019 after being very sick and I weighed 88 lbs. For the last two and a half years I have had to inject insulin 4+ times for day every day, to stay within my blood glucose level.

In December 2020 I was hospitalized and had to have emergency surgery where I had to stay at home for the entire period of my illness without working, and I also had DKA aka Diabetic ketoacidosis is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones.

In the picture, the devices you see are the ones that are needed to control my diabetes.

Diabetic ketoacidosis develops when your body cannot produce enough insulin. Insulin normally plays an important role in helping sugar (glucose), the main source of energy for your muscles and other tissues, enter your cells. Without enough insulin, your body begins to break down fat as an alternative fuel. This process produces a buildup of toxic acids in the bloodstream called ketones, eventually leading to diabetic ketoacidosis if left untreated.

Three months later in March 2021 I finally got to see an endocrinologist, who specializes in Type 1 Diabetes. Who told me that an insulin pump would be a good device for me?

I was recently approved for an insulin pump that will help me better control my diabetes. Although I am happy that I am approved the hardest part is coming up with the funds to pay for the pump and equipment.

GOAL: $40/$340

A donation of any amount will be greatly appreciated even if you can't donate but if you share the story against friends It will help. Thanks to anyone and everyone who is willing to help.

I must not mock Gen Alpha. Mocking Gen Alpha is the mind killer. Mocking Gen Alpha is the little-death that brings total generational solidarity obliteration. I will engage with Gen Alpha lovingly. I will permit them to be cringe. And when they grow up I will turn my eye to their accomplishments. Where mocking has gone there will be nothing. Only generational solidarity remains

As protests start ramping up and violence escalates please remember:

DO NOT PUT MILK IN YOUR EYES FOR PEPPER SPRAY OR TEAR GAS.

It can and will cause infection due to bacteria. Flush with water, distilled if possible, and never EVER wear contact lenses to protests where there may be police retaliation.

Please reblog. It may save someone's sight.
