Cancer Uterus, Symtoms, Causes, Prevention and Treatment
Cancer Uterus, Symptoms, Causes, Prevention, and Treatment: Uterine cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the lining of the uterus, known as the endometrium. It occurs when the cells in the endometrium start to grow and multiply uncontrollably, forming a tumor. If left untreated, the tumor can spread to other parts of the body. Symptoms of Uterine Cancer The most common symptom of uterine…

My campaign is verified and added to the Gaza Donations page with number 192.
Thank you for documenting my campaign from the following accounts:
@sar-soor @heba-20 @el-shab-hussein @90-ghost @soon-palestine@ibtisams @marnota @riding-with-the-wild-hunt @i-am-aprl @northgazaupdates @fallahifag @fairuzfan
I love you all 🙏🙏♥️🌹
I am Mohammed Almanasra, 32 years old, married, and a father of three children: Abdulrahman, 6 years old, Sarah, 4 years old, and Lina, 3 years old.
My story began with the loss of my parents and four of my sisters, who were bombed and lost their lives along with their children after the events of October 7 and the severe war on Gaza. Now, I am facing a severe injury to my leg, which is at risk of amputation if I do not receive the necessary treatment. My wife, children, and I are displaced, without parents or siblings, and my wife is also suffering from uterine cancer.
Recently, I moved to the south of the Gaza Strip, fearing for the lives of my children. We left behind our memories and our new home, for which we had not finished paying the installments, in addition to losing my job. Currently, I live in a tent that does not protect me from the heat of summer or the cold of winter, and without the minimum necessary livinng basics including water, food medical care, clothe and even bedding .
I suffer from a chronic asthma and severe attacks from tightness and an extreme allergy in the ear and I need medicine that are not available, or very expensive .
Under these difficult circumstances, after five attempts at displacement and narrowly escaping death from the bombing, I am trying with all my might to protect my family, the most precious thing I have.
My dreams were shattered, and my house was destroyed, and I found myself living in a tent no larger than 4 square metres. My work turned from a tailor to a street vendor in order to barely buy a few crumbs of bread to feed my children.
Look at what happened to my children because of the intense heat and the insects that thrive in the summer season. Every day, I take them to the hospital to treat them due to poisonous insect bites. I implore every kind-hearted soul to help me protect my children.
My son, Abdul Rahman, has a deep passion for playing football and is a devoted fan of Real Madrid. He always dreamed of playing football at his school, but the war prevented this dream from coming true.
Where are you, Real Madrid fans ?
Help Abdul Rahman achieve his dream.
Every donation will make an enormous difference in helping me save my family.
I feel very sad and embarrassed to ask for help, but I have no other options left. I know that this request is difficult, but I also know that there is still humanity and living consciences and I believe in miracles.
Your support during this extremely difficult time will give us hope in the midst of devastation and despair.
If you have any inquiries or questions, feel free to ask me, please!
To everyone with a compassionate heart,
To all who understand the essence of humanity,
This is a message from my innocent children, who trust that their words will reach everyone who truly understands the meaning of childhood.
We cry out to you, asking you to feel our sorrow and pain, and to extend a helping hand to us in this time when we are in desperate need of your mercy and compassion.
My name is being repeatedly added to many public and private donation campaigns. Please, be a support for me in this difficult situation.

please help try to prevent this family from being separated despite all odds
@save-mohamed-family ‘s wife, manal, is in critical condition. she has developed late-stage uterine cancer during this endless extermination campaign against life in palestine, surviving now over a year without access to proper treatment or a night’s rest without threat of death via bombing or starvation.
the director of the hospital is arranging for her to be evacuated soon. the trouble is that manal cannot leave without her husband, my dear friend mohamed, and they cannot leave any of their three young children behind in an active war-zone.
please try to help. please do anything you can. it doesn’t have to be perfect, but it needs to happen quickly and this family needs a lot of you.
please share this campaign, this story. these are human beings enduring unimaginable things. the hateful comments being left on this campaign have never looked more like buzzing flies tantruming they cannot feast on more death. this campaign’s circulation is proof of life.
these babies are alive. do you see them? can you help them go with their mother and father?

Hello, My name is Mohammed, and I'm from Gaza. I am not a robot or a scammer. The war in Gaza has left me with devastating memories and unbearable pain. I lost my parents and siblings in horrifying moments, and my life is now filled with tears and agony. I sustained severe injuries to my leg, and every passing day I feel the threat of losing it due to the lack of necessary treatment. 😭 My beloved wife is suffering from uterine cancer and has not been able to receive chemotherapy sessions since the beginning of the events in Gaza. My innocent children live in constant fear and anxiety, and I cannot bear to see their tear-filled eyes. I humbly and hopefully request your donation of $5 or more to treat my leg, save my wife's life, and secure the future of my children. Every passing minute increases our suffering and pushes us closer to the edge. My story is documented under the number 192, and my information is verified. You can verify this by requesting any information you need. Please donate and share my story with others. My wife, children, and I are waiting for your prayers and support with broken hearts and hanging hopes. Thank you very much.
Hi Mohammed! Of course I'll share
Mohammed is from Gaza, he's 32YO, he's married and he's the father of three children: Abdulrahman, 6 years old, Sarah, 4 years old, and Lina, 3 years old.
Mohammed lost his mother, father, and four sisters who were killed in a bombing, and is now living in tents with his remaining family members, his wife and three young children. he was seriously injured in his foot and it may need to be amputated, but he doesn't care if he loses his foot he just doesn't want to lose his family.
His wife has uterine cancer but hasn't been able to get treatment recently because the genocidal israeli army has destroyed health centers. His children are suffering from infectious diseases spreading throughout gaza, and the little medical treatment available is very expensive.
Mohammed suffers from chronic asthma and severe attacks from tightness and an extreme allergy, and needs meds that are not available, or very expensive. His family lost their home, but they're still there and he's trying to protect them with all he has.
"My main goal with this donation is to protect my children, my wife, and our scaredy cat and evacuate them to a safe place away from the ongoing wars. The funds will be used to cross the Egyptian border and bring basic needs and treatments to create a more stable conditions for my family. Approximately $18,000 will be allocated for travel expenses, and around $6,000 for securing suitable housing for a couple of months. As for the medical treatment costs, the exact figure will be determined after undergoing examinations in hospitals in the Arab Republic of Egypt & it's gonna be in average $8,000. The remaining amount will be used to establish a small project to sustain our daily living, enabling me to provide for my children and wife.
My son, Abdul Rahman, has a deep passion for playing football and is a devoted fan of Real Madrid. He always dreamed of playing football at his school, but the war prevented this dream from coming true.
Where are you, Real Madrid fans?
Help Abdul Rahman achieve his dream."
THIS CAMPAIGN IS VETTED

Menopause was a French invention at a time of revolution (Alison M Downham Moore, Psyche, July 30 2024)
"Have women in all historical and present cultures suffered the ailments of menopause we know about today?
Studies in medical history and anthropology, and cross-cultural medical surveys, indicate wide variability in how women have experienced it globally.
Japanese women interviewed in the 1990s described their primary complaint of midlife as shoulder stiffness – not hot flushes.
And a 2015 study of British Pakistani women found that those raised in Pakistan were more likely to believe the menopause caused a cough and sore throat, while those raised in the UK were more likely to see it in a range of emotional symptoms.
No concept like ‘menopause’ is found in any world health or medical tradition, except in Western biomedicine.
And, even in the West, neither physicians nor midwives had much to say about the final cessation of menses before about 1780.
So how did the concept originate?
Menopause was first defined by young male university students and their medical professors at the universities of Montpellier and Paris from the end of the 1700s.
It was a major topic in France throughout the 19th century, with several hundred books written about it in the emerging new specialisms of hygiene (preventive health), psychiatry, gynaecology, sexology and endocrinology.
No other culture was anywhere near as interested in this topic as the French, and even those very few works on menopause appearing in Germany, England and the US during the 19th century borrowed heavily from them.
Why were the French in particular so fascinated by menopause?
Menopause was likely invented by the French because of its association with three categories of nervous pathologies that had flourished in medical writing there from the end of the 1600s into the 1800s: the vapours, hysteria, and hypochondria.
Nervous diseases, it was thought, were a product of luxury and civilisation: urban life, stale air, sedentary lifeways, overeating, exotic foods and beverages, licentiousness, and corporeal laziness were all to blame.
A medical view emerged of urban elite women in modern France as generally more prone to nervous diseases during times of uterine change, including around the final cessation of menses, via ‘sympathies’ of the uterus with the nervous system and the brain. (…)
When French physicians queried older peasant women about their cessation of menses, they were met with blank looks or laughter, since the very idea that simply being old enough to gain relief from menstruation and childbirth made one sick was completely alien and nonsensical to them.
Medical theses produced between 1799 and 1840 developed a rich ‘hygienic’ discourse, advising urban women to mimic peasant diets and lifeways to avoid the ravages of menopause and enjoy a healthy ageing. (…)
In the early 20th century, women conducted research studies on the diseases of women’s ageing, after they were permitted to enter the medical profession.
There was a distinctly less catastrophising and generalising tone.
They addressed serious diseases such as uterine cancer, or worrying symptoms such as haemorrhagic bleeding, but did not see these as problems for all women whose menses was ceasing.
Sage voices had long criticised the practice of lumping all women’s experiences of midlife and old age into the container of menopause.
Some women doctors argued that the concept of menopause was itself a risk to women’s health, producing an ‘auto-suggestion’, or nocebo effect that they would be better to avoid and simply take good care of their minds and bodies, or even embark on a quest for spiritual insight instead. (…)
The concept of menopause did not come from women themselves but rather from medical men for whom it served as a useful and generative case-example.
It was a tool for biomedical reformulations of treatment practices and for the conceptual separation of morbidity from mortality; it was a teaching device for male medical students learning the new mechanistic approach to women’s health; it was a weapon with which to fight other doctors, medical faculties and rival health traditions, as well as a pathway for new medical disciplines such as hygiene, psychiatry, gynaecological surgery and emergent endocrinology – to expand patient markets, develop theoretical precepts and refine clinical skills. (…)
The French pathologisation of menopause informed the 20th-century view of women as too different to include in clinical trials on account of their uterine exceptionalism, which continues to hamper current scientific knowledge of gendered diseases and drug responses.
More women than ever now live to an age when they will see their menses cease, so there is increased interest in menopause and new forms of representation about it.
But there is also a massive growth in the marketing of products and services designed to extract profits from women in midlife by promoting worry about their ageing and promising false remedies for all their life challenges.
Just like French doctors in the 19th century, commercial entities today hold a vested interest in the idea that menopause is a time of crisis and revolution – something we necessarily need to treat through specific interventions that target it."

My favorite part of having a uterus and periods is the way my meds just. Don’t work as well when I start menstruating. My sleep meds, my ADHD meds, my anxiety meds, everything gets noticeably less effective for like 2-3 weeks and I just have to suffer through it!
And gods forbid there be studies of the efficacy of daily medication during menstruation, a biological process that occurs frequently for a large chunk of the entire human population, because that would be stupid! Unlike how they used to study treatments/preventions for uterine and ovarian cancer in people without a uterus or ovaries.
Anyways. I’m grumpy and tired and anxious, my chronic fatigue and chronic pain are acting up, and I just want to feel more like ‘normal’ me again.
#shout out that episode of Last Week Tonight for teaching me that women/afabs were intentionally excluded from medical studies and research#because their ‘pesky hormones’ messed with the results and were a hassle#like apparently there was a general attitude/beleif that studying men and only men made sense because they were the ‘default’

Radiation Therapy Explained: Benefits, Process, and Potential Side Effects
Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses high doses of radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumours. Radiation therapy works by damaging the DNA of cancer cells, which prevents them from dividing or growing. Radiation therapy can be delivered externally or internally, depending on the type and location of the cancer.
Radiotherapy is a rapidly growing technically advancing speciality.
The most advanced radiotherapy techniques include:
ETHOS, Linear Accelerators with Artificial Intelligence.
MR Linear Accelerators, where a MR imaging machine is used as part of treatment for better imaging and treatment position and precision.
Cyberknife: A miniature linear accelerator mounted on a robotic arm, used for high precision radiotherapies to like brain tumors and recurrent tumors close to critical organs. Cyberknife is used even in noncancerous brain tumors like schwannommas and trigeminal nerve roots alleviating the pain and suffering of trigeminal neuralgia.
Proton Beam Therapy.
3D conformal radiation therapy.
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
Volumetric modulated radiation therapy (VMAT)
Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT)
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS)
Brachytherapy.
Superficial x-ray radiation therapy (SXRT)
Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT)
Benefits of Radiation Therapy
For many common cancers, such as breast cancer, bowel cancer, uterine cancer, skin cancers and prostate cancer, radiation therapy is highly effective in reducing the risk of cancer recurrence if delivered either before or after surgery. In some cancers (for example (prostate, head and neck, bladder, lung, cervix and skin cancers), radiation therapy, with or without drug therapy, can be used as the main curative treatment and in this way avoids the risks of surgery and the removal of organs.
For some cancers that are too advanced to be cured, radiation therapy is very effective for pain and other problems caused by cancer, such as bleeding from the lung or bladder. For example, pain in the bones from the spread of cancer can be improved significantly or be completely removed in around 75% of patients.
New technological advances in radiation therapy have made life better for cancer patients in recent years by making treatments even quicker, more accurate and effective.
Radiation therapy can help:
● Cure cancer by destroying all the cancer cells in a tumour.
● Control cancer by slowing down its growth or preventing it from spreading to other parts of the body.
● Relieve symptoms such as pain, bleeding, or pressure caused by a tumour.
Process of Radiation Therapy
The process of radiation therapy varies depending on the type and stage of the cancer, the goals of the treatment, and the patient’s overall health and preferences. Generally, the process involves:
Radiation therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses high energy beams to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumours.
The American Cancer Society notes that more than half of people with cancer receive radiation therapy.
Radiation damages genetic material called DNA inside of cancer cells. If the cancer cell cannot repair the DNA, the cell will not be able to produce new cells and may die.
The radiation may injure noncancerous cells, but most are able to recover.
A person’s treatment team will carefully plan radiation therapy to minimise damage to normal tissues and organs.
● A consultation with a radiation oncologist, who is a doctor who specialises in treating cancer with radiation.
● A planning session is where a radiation therapist will keep the patient immobilised in position with thermoplastic masks, then imaging tests such as CT scans or MRI scans are used to map out the exact location and size of the tumour and the surrounding normal tissues.
● A simulation session, where a radiation therapist will position the patient on a table and mark the skin with ink or tattoos to guide the delivery of the radiation beams.
● A treatment session, where the patient will lie still on a table while a machine called a linear accelerator will deliver the radiation beams to the tumour from different angles. The treatment session may last from a few minutes to an hour, depending on the dose and type of radiation therapy. The patient may need to have several treatment sessions over days, weeks, or months.
Potential Side Effects of Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy can cause side effects that vary depending on the part of the body being treated, the dose and type of radiation therapy, and the patient’s individual response. Some common side effects include:
● Skin changes such as redness, dryness, itching, peeling, or blistering.
● Fatigue or tiredness that may interfere with daily activities.
● Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation that may affect appetite and digestion.
● Hair loss in the area being treated.
● Mouth sores or dry mouth that may make eating or swallowing difficult.
● Headaches or memory problems that may affect concentration or mood.
● Inflammation or infection of the bladder or rectum that may cause pain or bleeding during urination or bowel movements.
Most side effects are temporary and will go away after the treatment is completed. However, some side effects may be long-lasting or permanent, such as infertility, nerve damage, lymphedema (swelling caused by fluid build-up), or secondary cancers.
Radiation therapy is an effective and safe way to treat many types of cancer. However, it is not suitable for everyone and it may have some risks and limitations. Therefore, it is important to discuss with your doctor about the benefits and drawbacks of radiation therapy for your specific situation before starting the treatment.

Outdated grooming policies banning natural Black hairstyles have fueled racial inequities in schools and workplaces for too long. However, a new wave of legislative reforms and public advocacy aims to finally dismantle this form of discrimination. The CROWN Act (Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair) has emerged as a legislative solution, prohibiting race-based hair discrimination. To date, the CROWN Act has been enacted in 24 states and numerous municipalities but has stalled in the U.S. Senate after passing through the House. Additionally, some state-level versions of the CROWN Act still enable discriminatory targeting of Black hairstyles.
In Texas, the CROWN Act left loopholes allowing bans on hair longer than two inches, which explicitly singles out and prohibits natural Black hairstyles like afros and dreadlocks on male students. By failing to bar restrictive policies on length and color, Texas’ version of the CROWN Act falls short of fully preventing race-based hair discrimination. Such gaps at the state level undermine the spirit of the CROWN Act and must be addressed through truly comprehensive reforms that protect all facets of Black hair. This gap between legislative success and real-world implementation, as evidenced by the suspension of a Texas student months after the Act’s passage, highlights the need for comprehensive legislation to fully address hair discrimination. Moving forward, legislation must address hair length, color, texture, and style to create truly inclusive policies without loopholes that permit discrimination.
Hair policies that regulate length and color have specifically targeted Black students, leading to disproportionate discipline and loss of educational opportunities. National data reveal that while Black students represent 15% of the K–12 population, they account for 31% of all school suspensions. Black students nationwide are missing nearly three times as many school days due to suspension as white students, accounting for a disproportionate number of the total 11 million days of lost instruction. In one school district in Texas, research from the Center for Justice Research at Texas Southern University found that Black students are seven times more likely to be suspended compared to white students, often for discretionary, minor behavioral infractions. Repeated suspensions increase the risk of falling behind, dropping out, and having contact with the juvenile justice system. In fact, one study revealed a concerning cycle—students who were suspended from school were seven percent more likely to later have contact with the juvenile justice system. Moreover, once these students returned to their schools after suspension, they were 20% more likely than their peers to face another suspension.
The consequences of hair discrimination extend beyond the classroom. A 2021 study found that Black women with natural hairstyles are less likely to be recommended for a job interview compared to white women with curly or straightened hair. Natural hairstyles like dreadlocks were deemed less professional. This employment discrimination limits economic mobility and forces Black women to incur the financial and health burdens of damaging chemical treatments, including increased uterine cancer risk from chemical straighteners.
To achieve the goal of ending hair discrimination, the CROWN Act must expand to cover all facets of hair style and presentation without exceptions, such as those found in the Texas version. Congress should pass the federal CROWN Act, joining states like Colorado and New Jersey in enacting more comprehensive bills that close loopholes. Enforcement will also require dedicated resources and training. School administrators must learn how to shift away from punitive dress codes toward supportive, culturally-informed policies. Human resource professionals need guidance on removing Eurocentric appearance standards from hiring and grooming practices.
The CROWN Act reflects an important step towards ending race-based hair discrimination. However, true progress requires closing loopholes that allow for continued disproportionate enforcement against Black students and workers. Comprehensive legislation coupled with proper training and enforcement provides a path forward to ending harmful policies rooted in white supremacist standards. Schools and workplaces must move beyond narrow beauty norms towards valuing diversity in how individuals present themselves. This includes embracing and protecting all hair lengths, textures, and colors.
Why it matters
Hair discrimination limits educational attainment, career opportunities, and economic mobility for Black Americans. It also exacts a psychological and physical health toll by forcing assimilation to white beauty standards. The CROWN Act has the potential to eliminate centuries-old institutional policies and stereotypes that perpetuate racial inequities and trauma.
However, achieving this goal depends on enacting legislation that fully encompasses all facets of hair, including length, texture, color, and style. Comprehensive legal protections coupled with training and enforcement can help create more inclusive environments, where individuals are empowered to show up authentically. Getting the CROWN Act right matters for racial justice and equality of opportunity.

HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR MEN & WOMEN
WHAT IS BIOIDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACMENT THERAPY?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment that involves taking hormones to supplement the body's natural hormone production. It is often used to treat menopausal symptoms in women, such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness, as well as to prevent osteoporosis. HRT can also be used to treat men with low testosterone levels, a condition known as hypogonadism.
There are several different types of HRT, including estrogen-only therapy, progestogen-only therapy, and combined estrogen and progestogen therapy. Estrogen-only therapy is typically prescribed to women who have had a hysterectomy, while combined therapy is typically prescribed to women who still have their uterus.
HRT can be administered in several different forms, including pills, patches, gels, and creams. The specific type of hormone replacement therapy and the dosage will depend on the individual's needs and medical history.
It is important to note that HRT can have potential risks and side effects, and it is not suitable for everyone. It is important to discuss the potential benefits and risks with a healthcare provider before starting HRT.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BIOIDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR MEN AND WOMEN?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can have several potential benefits, depending on the specific type of hormone therapy and the individual's medical needs. Some potential benefits of HRT include:
Relief of menopausal symptoms: HRT can help alleviate common menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness.
Osteoporosis prevention: Estrogen therapy can help prevent bone loss and reduce the risk of osteoporosis, a condition that causes bones to become weak and brittle.
Cardiovascular benefits: Some research suggests that estrogen therapy may have protective effects on the heart and blood vessels, although more research is needed to confirm this.
Improved mood: HRT may help improve mood and cognitive function in some women experiencing menopausal symptoms.
Improved sleep: HRT may help improve sleep patterns in some women experiencing menopausal symptoms.
It is important to note that the potential benefits of HRT vary from person to person and depend on the specific type and dosage of hormone therapy. It is important to discuss the potential benefits and risks with a healthcare provider before starting HRT.
WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES OF BIOIDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can have several potential risks and side effects, depending on the specific type of hormone therapy and the individual's medical needs. Some potential risks and side effects of HRT include:
Increased risk of blood clots: HRT can increase the risk of blood clots, which can cause serious complications such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.
Increased risk of stroke: Some studies have found that HRT may increase the risk of stroke, particularly in women who smoke or have a history of stroke or heart attack.
Increased risk of breast cancer: Some studies have found that HRT may increase the risk of breast cancer, particularly in women who use combined estrogen and progestogen therapy.
Increased risk of uterine cancer: HRT may increase the risk of uterine cancer in women who use combined estrogen and progestogen therapy.
Increased risk of gallbladder disease: HRT may increase the risk of gallbladder disease in some women.
It is important to note that the potential risks and side effects of HRT vary from person to person and depend on the specific type and dosage of hormone therapy. It is important to discuss the potential benefits and risks with a healthcare provider before starting HRT.

Machine learning already save lives. A specific model can detect breast cancer signs on mammograms up to 5 years before it starts to develop. The amount of doctors that can do that is incredibly small and even then they make more mistakes than the software.
Machine learning could be as significant as the development of radiation therapy for cancer treatment, but at the preventive stage. For breast cancer there are already very regular checkups (but it still could mean getting years of head start on it, thus saving a lot of work, pain and side effects), but if the tech trains well on other types of frequent cancer you could have a yearly check just by doing the irm and look for colon, prostate, throat, lung and uterine cancer in one go.
Please, when you mean generative visual or text Gans, LLMs, or chat bots, just say it. Don't let companies use AI to mean everything with a machine that is not purely an algorithm. Just because something is doing linear regression doesn't mean it's GenAI.

my friend mohamed’s cat, amy, is older than all three of his children! he carried her with him when he and his family were forced to evacuate their home in north gaza due to the brutal colonizing forces and their us-funded death squads ravaging palestine for its land.
here is amy now - she’s been skin and bones since the genocide has prevented mohamed from accessing adequate care for her illness. still, she makes his children smile and he hopes to get treatment for her when they are able to evacuate into egypt. just the same as mohamed plans on finding care for his wife, who is suffering from advanced uterine cancer, mohamed cares a great deal about this little cat.
here’s another picture of amy and of the two birds that mohamed’s family escaped north gaza with. how incredible is it that so many palestinians refuse to abandon their beloved animals, even as the occupation indiscriminately brutalizes and destroys all life?
something beautiful happened! this tiny kitten has joined mohamed’s family in the tent! abdul rahman, sarah, and lynn all love this kitten and hope that they are able to bring it across the border when the rafah crossing opens back up.
despite serious illness, mohamed’s daughter sarah talks constantly about how much she loves these cats and wants to play with them again. mohamed tells me that she loves cats more than she loves her own parents sometimes. i understand her. can you help keep her safe and ensure that she can bring these animals with her to egypt?
donations increased temporarily after the election results were called, then slowed down again as americans seem to retreat back into themselves. please let these people hold your attention this time.
mohamed is #192 on this verification sheet.
if you would like an alternative method for donating, please use this cashapp QR code to send money to mohamed’s fundraising coordinator. we are in constant contact and mohamed confirms to me that 100% of these funds are sent directly to him without delay.
please help me protect this family and their pets.
