#gofundme update

[zoroshark]

Hey! This is Zoro coming with an update about my health as quite a few things have happened the past couple of months. As some may know, I've been dealing with chronic pain and illness since February of last year as mentioned in this post here.

A quick summary of it was that I have been dealing with constant bladder and stomach problems suddenly that were disrupting day to day life as they were painful and constant. Despite the multiple hospital visits, nothing was really done and at the time I could only wait to see certain specialists (which required a lot of money to see). Recently however, I finally got an answer to what was causing me pain in one part of my stomach! The culprit was my gallbladder and it has been removed!

The rest of the post will be caught off so for those who want to read in more detail, but one issue has been solved (at least i hope so)!

I also want to note here and thank everyone who's been supportive of me during this rough patch in my life. I also want to thank those who sent money for the GoFundMe! However, due to a few circumstances which will also be explained in the read more section, I will be refunding it all to those who donated.

TLDR version of my reason is that I was advise to do so for the eligibility medical/financial benefits I've been looking into. The refunds should be sent in about a week, so keep and eye out!

TW for Medical related subjects such as surgery.

For what was causing me pain in my stomach, or at least one of the reasons:

Turns out I had gallstones that somehow CT scans and ultrasounds didn't pick up last year, despite the pain and discomfort I was in from them. It got to the point where the pain was so unbearable, I was crying for about 2-3 hours before going to the ER. They found one stone had thicken walls through the ultrasounds and my gallbladder was infected from these stones.

Because of the findings, I underwent surgery to completely remove it during my stay in the hospital. I am now close to two weeks post-op and so far it has relieved most, if not all, of the constant pain I've been in my upper right. While I still have issues elsewhere in my body, it feels nice to have one issue solved. I just hope I don't need another trip to the ER anytime soon.

As for the detailed explanation for refunding the GoFundMe donations:

A few months back I after the go found me, I was accepted in a financial assistance program that made doctor's visits way cheaper. From close to hundreds of dollars to 3 dollars, that was way more an affordable price range for me. Despite that, i kept the donations on hold just in cause anything changed or something wasn't covered by the program until now.

Along with that, I've been applying for disability as I am considered disabled by my psychiatrist due to my mental health. After talking to a few folks who knew about the system, they mentioned that the money from the fundraiser could harm the process in gaining these benefits. Their recommended course of action was to refund the money as a precaution, so I'm following their advice. After the refunds have gone through, I will be closing the fundraiser.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Again, I want to give a massive thank you everyone in general who have supported me through all this. Its been difficult, especially since I had to accommodate to the pain and changes in my body. There has been MANY ups and for sure downs, but I'm still holding on!

Thank you for reading on this update, and expect to see me slowly become active again on here! I'm still in my Zonai phase so expect more content revolving around that, along with possible Zora content. Original works not involving fandoms will also (hopefully) be posted too!

Im also thinking of opening commissions in the future! I'll need to ask about that first due to what I mentioned above, but as far as I'm aware, I should be okay to do so (but don't quote me on it). So keep an eye out!

Thank you to everyone that has donated and shared around social media so far. I realised some people might not be able to donate here and if you can, you can donate to my PayPal instead. I'll track it as an offline goal so that the donation still is shown here. My PayPal is pharoosh2@gmail.com or https://www.paypal.me/Pharoosh Thank you everyone.

Holy shit. People are so incredibly, insanely lovely. Thanks to my wonderful friends sharing and donating, and some amazingly generous strangers, my GoFundMe to save and fix my car just hit goal. One person donated $1,000 and I'm STILL in absolute shock over that.

Thank you so very much to every single person who has shared/reblogged and everyone who's donated. You are all amazing people, and your kindness has genuinely restored my faith in humanity (no it's not about the money. it's about everyone who cared, whether y'all donated or not). I appreciate you so much.

Special thank you to @vaspider for helping with a massive signal boost twice, and to my lovely, beautiful, talented, amazing friend @unconstrained-frivolitea for gently prodding me out of my comfort zone to ask in the first place. Also twice lol.

Thank you all for showing this jaded old bitch that there is still so much kindness in the world. You're amazing!

[sayruq]

Donate!!!!!! Boost!!!!!

[whumperofworlds]

An anon bought me a coffee at Ko-Fi, so my goal is now $500/$2500!

Also, I have whump writing commissions opened! If you'd rather do that (just make sure you read my conditions in the link and all!), just let me know here and I'll be more than happy to do them! :D

*sighs* I hate having to do this. But I'm at my wits end.

So. As many of you know, I disappeared last month without warning. That's due to me being hospitalized after a mental break due to my mom and her friends' harassment, both online and offline.

My father and I are planning on moving out, but since I was hospitalized, we're struggling not only with current bills, but also medical bills.

So. I made a GoFundMe for this.

So please, whump friends! Help us! And please spread the word if you can! If you can't donate, that's okay!

There’s a bittersweet joy in witnessing the struggles of the Syrian people bear moments of hope, but it feels like a fleeting spark, a fragile light overshadowed by deeper, relentless forces. Can we call this freedom? Or is it just a brief pause in a cycle of pain that has gripped us for far too long?

For decades, the Middle East has been scarred by war, division, and unimaginable suffering. These aren’t random tragedies, they are deliberate, calculated acts meant to maintain control. As long as Zionism continues to reshape the region, inching closer to the goal of a Greater Israel, true freedom for any of us will remain a distant dream.

But freedom isn’t just about removing one dictator or another. Real freedom requires dismantling the entire system that keeps us in chains. It’s about a shift in power, a dismantling of structures that oppress us all. Until Palestine is free, until the people who are suffering are allowed to breathe, none of us can say we’re free.

This isn’t just a political issue for me, it’s personal. My family in Gaza is living through an unthinkable reality: genocide, freezing cold nights without shelter, hunger, and prices so high that survival is a struggle each day. They’re stuck in a nightmare that keeps getting worse, and their suffering is not just a faraway tragedy, it’s a pain that echoes through me.

And yet, despite the immense pain, I hold on to hope. Because I know that change is possible. Every small donation, every act of solidarity, can ripple outward and transform lives. This isn’t just charity, it’s resistance. It’s standing together to defy those who profit from our suffering. You have the power to be part of this change. Stand with Gaza. Stand for freedom. Stand for humanity.

This campaign is for 26 lives hanging by a thread, including two orphaned children and a family member suffering from hemiplegia after being hit by shrapnel during a bombing. She urgently needs surgery to replace infected plates in her body. The situation is dire, and every day is a battle. The video showing the injured family member was shared earlier in this post: Link.

Thanks for all the donations, everyone!! I’m floored by your generosity. I really appreciate it. You guys are amazing!!

Unfortunately I overestimated my paycheck depositing tonight— I knew it would be small, but I didn’t realize quite how small it would be. If you’re wondering why I changed the goal, that’s why.

Thanks again for your donations— and please share. You’re all wonderful!

I'm sorry that I have to do this, but a big sale of my artwork fell through, and now I don't have enough for rent. If anyone can help out, I (and my cat Peggy) will greatly appreciate this. Thanks everyone!

[northgazaupdates]

PLEASE HELP THE ALWAN FAMILY

Mohammad Alwan, his wife Samar, and their three small children were displaced following the destruction of their home by the occupation. They have been living in a tent in extreme heat and severe pestilence.

Today, an IOF quadcopter (a drone with a mounted assault rifle) attacked Mohammad’s location, shooting at him and his family. Mohammad was almost killed, and now the family has been displaced again. Mohammad just sent me this video, taken as he and his family fled.

They were chased out of the camp under gunfire, and are now being trailed by tanks. They are currently stranded on the beach, with no shelter and nowhere to go. The beach is completely dark, and they are sitting in the sand with no protection. The occupation is now shelling the beach and firing rockets at the displaced people trapped there. The only light comes from the explosion of mortars as they strike the ground, trapping and terrorizing civilians who have nowhere to go.

This family’s only hope for survival is evacuation. They are trying to gather funds to evacuate through Rafah crossing when it reopens, but their campaign has made very little progress. Please help give this family hope.

UPDATE 11/23: Siraj has made a new GoFundMe. It's under the name of his sister, Fatima. Please read the post and amplify it

...

UPDATE 11/20 | Siraj has made an official statement. Please read and share it

Some more info on my followup reblog

Original post:

Hey everyone. If you've been following @siraj2024's fundraiser, we (me and other tumblr users who are Siraj's friends) need you to know that his GoFundMe campaign was taken down yesterday. We don't now why and we're awaiting for official confirmation by the site. We're thinking of potential alternatives in the meantime.

Me and others are in contact with Siraj. He and his family are okay, but they've had difficult winter nights in the camp.

Please be patient and share this post so it can get to his supporters.

Hello friends,

I am Issam Aziz. I come to you today pleading, please help me spread the campaign so I can evacuate my mother from the war in Gaza.

I am here in the Netherlands, feeling helpless and weak, with nothing I can do. You are our only hope.

I am willing to do anything to save my dear mother's life. Take her out and put me in her place in the war.

My mother is elderly and cannot endure all this hardship and fatigue. Besides, she suffers from chronic illnesses like hypertension and diabetes, and she had a stroke before the war.

The war is stealing the most precious person in my life. Let's work on saving my mother before it's too late. Every minute that passes is precious for me and for her.

A mother is the light that illuminates our paths. Don't let this light go out. We can give someone a new chance at life. Your small donation can make a big difference in her life.

With all my love ❤️🙏🏼,

Issam Aziz
