A cry from the Rubble
Donation protected
We urgently appeal for help and assistance as the situation in Gaza is dire, with famine, collapsing healthcare facilities, months without education, and indiscriminate bombardment wreaking havoc.
My name is Renad Toman , I'm 28 years old I'm pregnant and displaced from Gaza to Rafah. I am in the seven month and suffer from anemia ، malnutrition and Gestational diabetes and severe urinary infections due to lack of availability of clean drinking water
I have a specific lifestyle and medications specific to my condition. I have lost all of this since the beginning of the war. As the date of my daughter’s birth approaches, we have reached a difficult stage.
Every things were destroyed ,even Hospitals around us and I need a caesarean section when giving birth There are no minimal surgical requirements, even anesthesia is no longer available, not to mention the lack of hygiene I am very worried and afraid of losing my baby and I need your help.
Even my house has become unlivable due to the massive destruction in it there’s no medical care, birth conditions are very difficult in Gaza, and I could lose my baby girl due to poor health care, and because my condition is special and requires special care due to my illness.
Medications related to my illness have been discontinued for six months, and my health condition and my bones are unfortunately in a difficult health condition. Please, I want to give birth to my baby.
In a healthy environment suitable for my health condition, especially since I did not receive any health care, neither during my pregnancy nor during my illness during the war.
In addition to all that my two daughters have not received their education for months because there are no schools, everything stopped education, healthcare our life stopped.
I have a little time left to raise money so I can save my children and my family and most importantly give birth to my future child in good and healthy conditions.
Since the events of October 7 of the war on Gaza, the Israeli occupation forced us to leave our house, which contained all of our possessions.
We moved to my family's home, but the occupation destroyed it as well, and the house quickly turned into rubble.
Then the number of displacements continued until we reached Rafah Life was very difficult in Rafah with slow death, severe malnutrition, widespread diseases and sleeping without knowing whether you would survive the airstrike or not
We are enduring terrifying days filled with the sounds of bombing and destruction, lacking even the most basic necessities of life like electricity, water, food, medicine, and cooking gas.
My family struggles to sleep amidst the terrifying sounds and suffocating smell of gunpowder. Famine looms large as water and food become scarce, resembling rare currencies that are difficult to obtain.
Life in Rafah has become a battle against slow death, hunger, thirst, disease, and direct bombing. Unemployment exacerbates our plight, drained of funds by the skyrocketing cost of living during this war.
Trapped in Gaza by financial constraints, life has become untenable. We yearn for the simple comforts enjoyed by the rest of the world—shelter, security, and access to education and recreation.
Now Rafah is under threat and we no longer have a place that needs immediate assistance So that I can give birth safely and reassuringly under good health conditions and to protect my children and family.
I am a pharmacist, I worked in a company, and I owned a beautiful house in Khan Younis,, all these things were destroyed. I no longer have a job at this present time, most of the leftover money was spent on the high costs of things to get through this war.
My family and I, want to live a quiet and a simple life please help me achieve that.
I hope you can share my story with friends and family and spread awareness about how life is difficult for both people in Gaza, and people who escaped the war, and now are in Egypt.
Thank you for your solidarity with us, with my sincere regards.
