URGENT: Pregnant mother and her four children in Gaza are burned and without shelter (verified)

Samira (@samiraayman5, @samira-family) is a pregnant mother with four children -- she and her children were sleeping rough after being displaced from their home in North Gaza multiple times, and when she finally managed to raise enough money to buy a tent for them to sleep in, it was burned by the occupation in a bombing of Al-Aqsa Hospital where they were sheltering, and so were her children.

Now Samira and her family are once again without shelter as winter approaches and the temperature is dropping, and her children also need burn medicine, which is approximately $400 due to scarcity, an expense that is on top of the exorbitant cost of food, and the money required to get another tent, as they're currently having to sleep on the hard ground.

Samira is afraid she will give birth not in hospital, or even in a tent, but on the dirty ground: this is extremely dangerous not just because of how unhygienic it is, but because of the serious diseases that are rampant in the Gaza Strip - including Hepatitis C - and Samira's anaemia and asthma, conditions caused by the displacement and suffering of the past year.

At the time of writing (4th November 2024), Samira has raised $2,959 USD out of her current goal of $20,000 USD.

The $400 for the burn medicine is needed URGENTLY so her children can heal from their injuries and avoid infection, as is the money for a tent so Samira does not have to give birth on the ground without even a mattress or tarp - tents in Gaza are currently selling for hundreds of USD, so realistically Samira needs to raise at least $1000 USD as quickly as possible.

If you can give anything to help Samira provide for her children and see to their basic needs, please donate to her gofundme (link: https://gofund.me/18a035a1 verification by @90-ghost) -- she is in great need, like so many others, and has nowhere else to turn.

Some facts:

in 2018 while studying for my BA in Classics I wrote a short story about Helen of Troy and the oracle Cassandra falling in love during the Trojan War

It sat on my hard drive for 3 years because I didn't know what to do with it

I eventually went "fuck it" and posted it on AO3 under the original fiction + greek mythology tags. This is the only place it can be accessed by anyone other than me.

For my screenwriting degree this semester I had to do a project where I wrote the first act of an original screenplay

I pitched a film adaptation of my Helen/Cassandra short story which was well received.

wrote the screenplay

I have to write an essay about how I wrote the screenplay

my bibliography now has an entry that looks like this:

The visceral horror of having to cite my own AO3 account in an essay has short-circuited my brain

I have my first pre-top surgery appointment where I meet the surgeon tomorrow and I'm taking out my crippling anxiety on superwonderbat by drawing a sketchy comic of an AU that lives in my head that I call The Trinity But They're All Queer Women(ish)

Unpopular opinion but starting a project is the easiest part. The opening scene comes to me in a vision and I blat it out on the page in a trance and then I wake up and it's like. Okay. Now what. My WIP folder is full of first chapters and the author refuses to fucking update

there is a line between “annabel lee is an evil irredeemable manipulative bitch who deserves every bad thing that happens to her” and “annabel has done nothing wrong because everything she does is for lenore’s sake” that i feel some people here need to find
