En mor med fem barn; en historie om overlevelse, adskillelse og håp

Innsamling til en fembarnsmor og hennes familie i Egypt og Gaza.

Most of you know Entemaas story quite well. Here she gives an update about her situation March 2026:

"For almost two years now, my life has been divided between two pains: being far from my child, and worrying every day about the survival of my family in Gaza.

I have now been in Egypt for nearly two years seeking treatment for my daughter. Alhamdulillah, the hospital helps by covering the apartment where we stay and some medical costs, but I still have to pay all the monthly bills myself — water, electricity, internet, gas, and our daily living expenses.

At the same time, my large family in Gaza — nearly 20 people, including many children — are still living in tents. They depend mainly on the support I receive through this campaign just to survive. With the crossings closed and prices rising to unimaginable levels, even the most basic food has become incredibly expensive.

Recently my father became very ill with severe lung infections. The hospital in Gaza had almost no medicine available, so we had to buy the treatment ourselves. The cost was very heavy for us, but Alhamdulillah he is now recovering.

I was filled with hope when Rafah Crossing briefly opened and a small number of people could finally leave Gaza for treatment or reunite with family. But since the recent escalation, the crossing has closed again, and once more people are trapped.

My son Qasim just celebrated his birthday for the second time without me. My heart broke knowing I could not hug him or celebrate with him. I cried that day, but I still hold on to hope that one day we will finally be together again.

To all my friends and supporters: my family and I truly depend on your kindness. Your support is what keeps us going every month. I am deeply grateful for everyone who has stood beside us. Please don’t forget us, and please continue standing with us until our story finally finds relief."
