Imagine dedicating your life to helping others, selflessly pouring your time and energy into saving lives and easing suffering. Suddenly, the home and way of life you knew is destroyed by bombs raining from the sky, and the roles are reversed—your family’s survival is suddenly in the hands of others.

Imagine Dedicating Your Life To Helping Others, Selflessly Pouring Your Time And Energy Into Saving Lives

Story by @rumiandroses

This is reality for Samy Abu-Shawish, a nurse in Gaza, whose career has been spent saving lives—yet now, he must face incredible odds to save his own family.

Samy, a staff nurse at UNRWA, and his wife Nariman, also a nurse, are parents to four children: Lulu, Emad, Mohammad, and Adam. They are seeking help—a chance to escape the unfathomable nightmare that over a year of bombings and death and starvation has brought to Gaza.

With the violence escalating by the day, Samy and his family live under constant threat of attack. Samy and Nariman do their best to shield their children from the horrors unfolding around them, praying that the kindness of strangers will allow them to escape to safety—an opportunity the family otherwise cannot afford.

“The cost of leaving Gaza is beyond our means,” Samy shares. “Without your help, our dreams of a safe and peaceful future for our family remain out of reach.”

Currently, the only viable route out of Gaza is through Egypt, but it comes at a staggering price. Adults are being charged $5,000 to $10,000 for safe passage, with children’s fees at roughly half that. For Samy and his family of six, that would be a cost of approximately $40,00.

Despite completing a master’s degree in public health in June 2023 and dedicating his career to the service of others, Samy now finds himself with limited resources after funding his own higher education. The blockade of goods and aid into Gaza have caused the prices of everything—even the most basic of necessities like food, medicine, and clothes—to skyrocket, making basic survival incredibly difficult, and rendering saving for safe passage nigh on impossible.

Samy’s wish is simple: to find safety for his children and give them a future free from fear.

"As healthcare professionals, we have dedicated our lives to caring for others, and now we humbly ask for your help in ensuring the safety and well-being of our own family," Samy writes on his GoFundMe page.

Every donation brings this family one step closer to safety. With your support, Samy, Nariman, and their children can escape the violence and begin to rebuild their lives in safety.

If you cannot donate, please share this post to help Samy find people who can financially assist.

I am Dr. Ezzideen, working at the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza. For the past two days, the road to the hospital has been blocked, and we haven’t been able to reach it. Today, the hospital was threatened with evacuation, or it will be bombed. Many of my fellow doctors are trapped inside, unable to leave as quadcopter drones target any movement around the hospital.

One last plea... before I lose him forever

I'm not asking for money... I'm asking for life. I'm asking for a chance to see my child open his eyes again, laugh, call for me... I'm asking for a chance to hold him without feeling his breath disappear in my hands.

One Last Plea... Before I Lose Him Forever
One Last Plea... Before I Lose Him Forever

My little boy, a piece of my soul, is fighting death right now. His frail body is trembling, his eyes are filled with fear, he's searching for me as if he knows the end is near... and I stand helplessly by his side, my heart crumbling, my soul torn apart a thousand times every second. The doctors said he needs urgent surgery, but death is faster than me... and money stands between me and saving him.

Imagine watching your child dying, and all your screams, tears, and pleas meaningless because you don't have the money... Imagine that life forces you to be rich to keep your children, otherwise death will take them from you mercilessly...

One Last Plea... Before I Lose Him Forever
One Last Plea... Before I Lose Him Forever

I am writing these words and my heart is burning, collapsing, dying before my child... Please, please, with every tear, every pain, every compassion in your hearts, help me with anything, with any amount, with any share of this appeal... Perhaps your hand will be the one that saves him before it's too late.

One Last Plea... Before I Lose Him Forever
One Last Plea... Before I Lose Him Forever

I don't want to lose him... I don't want to carry him to his grave knowing that the chance to save him was in your hands...
