My name is Nadin. I never imagined I would write something like this. I’ve always been someone who kept her worries quiet, someone who believed that even the hardest days could be endured with patience and faith. But right now, I am reaching out — not because I want to, but because I need to.
I am a wife, a mother, and one of many women in Gaza trying to survive days that feel like they have no end. There was a short time — a brief ceasefire — where we thought things might start to heal. Where the sound of war faded for just long enough to let us breathe. But that moment is gone now, and the fear has returned louder than before.
My days are filled with uncertainty, and my nights with prayer. We have lost so much. Our home was damaged, our sense of safety taken from us. But through all of this, I try to keep going. I try to hold on to what little peace I can create with my hands, my words, and my love.
I am not asking for much. Just a little help to keep our lives from falling further apart. To fix the small things — a cracked wall, a leaking roof, the pieces of daily life that help us hold on to dignity.
This campaign isn’t just about survival. It’s about holding on to what makes us human in a place that keeps trying to take that away. It’s about showing my daughter — even though I won’t mention her name here — that the world didn’t forget us.
If you’ve ever felt powerless in the face of suffering, please know that even the smallest gesture can carry great meaning. A kind word. A shared post. A quiet donation. These things remind us that we’re not alone.
I am still here. Still holding on. Still believing that people out there — people like you — still care.
Please, if you feel moved, consider supporting or sharing this campaign.

@vickypersch: Did you forget Johnny or was that intentional 😂😂😂
Me: So…funny story… (I swear I love Johnny. I do.)
I wasn’t sure at all what I wanted to draw for Steve’s birthday. I didn’t have a direction at all. I thought about drawing OG Steve and Mexican Steve interacting. I also thought about doing a sketch dump for 🇲🇽Steve like I did for Johnny’s b-day. So, I just started with a sketch of 🇲🇽Steve in the center and began to build around that.
So, there’s 🇲🇽Steve, bein all cute, then I drew—what I thought was going to be OG Steve but ended up being—Soda, and then I drew Two-Bit on the other side of him. And since I drew Two and Soda I figured I had to draw Ponyboy! So I squeezed Pony in by having him hang off Soda (because he’s his and Steve’s little tag along ya know? and Soda and Pony are just like that anyways). And since I added Pony I had to draw Darry! So I got away with him being a little taller than everyone else cause that’s just how I imagine him, and then I realized; 🧍🏽♀️I don’t have any room for Johnny and Dally….🫥
It was a major dilemma last night. I was having a crisis. I seriously didn’t know where tf to put them.
And because I don’t believe in post canon 🙂↔️ I couldn’t leave them out. I just…couldn’t…it’s too morbid for me to exclude them. Sorry, I don’t like being ✨sad✨ (hence the date: pre-canon, although…it’d still be sad cause Mama and Papa Curtis would’ve JUST died…)
SO I squeezed Dally in behind Two and the humor of Soda’s hand covering his face is cute. And Johnny being absolutely enveloped by the group was such a silly idea that I just went ahead and made Johnny a singular arm 💀 —the irony of him holding the lighter is intentional btw.
IMPORTANT IF YOU LIVE IN THE US
i forgot to mention this sooner, but trump recently undid the law saying that food production companies have to inspect their food before giving it to the public. while this is good for the companies, it means health risks for people in the US. it also means that companies no longer have to tell you if their product contains anything that could potentially be harmful.
so if you are able to, please try to look into where you buy food so that you can buy from stores that do their own food inspections.
the only one I know off the top of my head is costco, so if anyone knows of others please comment or repost with safe stores.
