After these three years of suffering, no one has been able to help me, no strength, no courage. Of course, after I lost my limb and my son's limb, and my other son, Atheer, I feel so empty. I mean, the suffering of water, how can I get it, and the suffering of fire, how can I get it? Because you know that it's gas, thank God, every month it takes 45 days for a cylinder to reach you. The war is complete destruction, beyond what you can imagine. Destruction, I mean, homes are gone, people are gone. What suffering? What suffering in everything? The suffering I lived through before the war and after the war. I wish that death is still more honorable than me.

I'm still alive because every second I feel like I'm dead. Everything is with us on the way out, meaning I have to walk. At least I have to walk 3 kilometers to find a knee, and I don't know if I'll find a knee. Our lives are suffering, suffering, especially from After the limbs grew, since I moved from one area to another, meaning on a trip or anything on our roads, I find a lot of suffering in them any suffering on the street, meaning exhaustion, very, very exhaustion, meaning most of it is sand, meaning, even the one with two limbs can barely walk, let alone one limb, when the meaning is strong. Before, we lived in a simple way, meaning we didn't move anything, meaning everything was available to us.

He was my arm [music], he helped me, he

walked, he. I mean, no matter how much I describe him to you, if I were given a choice, honestly, I'm telling you, if I were given a choice, if they asked me to take his place in prison and he gets out, I'm one of the people who would agree. He was the one who carried me. My only wish is that I leave these people, that I get a or a crutch, anything, that I can walk on them. This is my only wish, that I can stand on two legs, me and my son.
