Medical professionals should now speak and move on Gaza now Israeli-Palestine conflict

The United Nations, the World Health Organization and the Palestinian Organization and the Palestinian American Medical Association, I have watched the genocide of genitizing in Gaza in Gaza, a voluntary opportunity.

I felt a doctor who is a trained nephrologist, a doctor that deals with the patients with kidneys, there was a specialized medical service in the conditions of the collapse of the health care system in Gaza.

I also felt like a Muslim to help the people of Gaza. Islam teaches us that if he saves a life, it literally saved all humanity; Taking care of others is the act of worship and standing towards injustice is a moral obligation.

I believe that my degree is not intended to hang on the walls of an air-conditioned office or to manage the most beautiful car or live in an expensive neighborhood. I swore an oath to the human life to dedicate my specialist to mankind and present my medical knowledge and mercy to those in need.

Thus, on July 16, I went to Gaza with several other vehicles.

Karem Abu Salem went through the passage and entered the lane. We left the wealth of the Israeli side to observe the prosperity, comfort and wealth of the Israeli side, to return to the destructive and misery of the Palestinian side. We basically see what the apartheid looks like.

We found that Khan saw the bombings of many buildings in our short visit through Southern Gaza in New Gaza. You name houses, schools, shops, hospitals, mosques.

The amount of demolition was ill. I can’t warn the destruction of the destruction I witnessed in Gaza so far.

Located in Al-Nasser Hospital because it is very dangerous to stay in another place. We were pleased with us and I was embarrassed so I was embarrassed. We saw like saviors.

I treated patients with kidney problems, I helped in the Primary Tibbin doctor and sometimes in the emergency casualties in the emergency room.

Dialysis requires clean water, sterile supply, reliable electricity, medicine and equipment to be medicinal, medications and equipment – none is guaranteed under the Israeli blockade. Each dializ session was a problem. Each delay increased the risk of my patients dead. Many of them died – a truth that I struggled to know that there is normal conditions, many of them could be saved and living normal life.

One of my patients, Waleed, Waleed, a young man who suffered from a high blood pressure, could be managed properly with access to the necessary treatment.

Dialysis was a lifestyle of Waleed, but could not get an adequate number of sessions due to the Israeli blockade, which caused heavy failure of medical supplies. Nutrition and deteriorating living conditions have accelerated only its decreasing.

I remember the breath of the body, the body is a dangerous high and blood pressure. Again, when I saw him, Waleed, the spirit greeted with a warm smile, the spirit is somehow whole, his mother is always next to his mother. Waleed, a few months after leaving Gaza, passed.

Mine was another sick Hussein, a delicate, heartbreaking person. He served him with his children with love and dignity.

Severe hypokalemia and acted asidified: the potassium level of his body was dangerously low and was acid until toxic. He needed the main drugs to solve his condition: potassium supplements and sodium bicarbonate pills.

These were simple, inexpensive, life-saving drugs and still did not allow them to blockade Israel. Because because he could not find these pills, Hussein was repeatedly hospitalized for intravenous potassium.

Despite his great sufferings, Hussein was left with grace, courage and faith. When talking, Alhamdulillah always repeated his expression. He passed a few weeks ago, they said.

Waleed and Hussein should be here – smile, laugh, live happy with their families. Instead, they became a loss of siege and silence. These are two of the many tragic stories I know and have witnessed. Very nice life lost can be detained.

Despite this sadness, my colleagues in Gaza continue to do their best for patients.

These are a medics that broke in every way. Like all other Palestinians in Gaza, it does not solve the daily struggles of life, but also witnessed the daily horrors of the headless babies, the ambors, fully burned people and sometimes lifeless remains of their relatives.

Imagine, no anesthesia, limited pain medications, very little antibiotics. Imagining surgeons sliding with plain water, children passing through amputations that do not have any sedition, the dressing of patients burning the full body did not change without pain cutting.

Still these health heroes only continue.

One of the nurses I work, Arafat, made a deep impression on me. He lived in a Macechift shelter with many family members. No protection against these elements – cold winter, burning heat or drenching rain.

He loses 15 kg (33lb) in nine months of all other Palestinians in Gaza. Working with obsolete sandals (1 mile) to 2 km every day, facing the threat of Israeli drones or fires on the street.

Again, the smile never left his face. He took care of more than 280 dialysis patients, taking care of their care and disturbing families by carefully listening to their colleagues with light humor.

I felt by the heroes like Arafat. His and his colleagues’ the consequence and determination was incredible.

While in Gaza, I had the opportunity to visit Al-Scala Hospital with a UN delegation. Gaza’s largest and most vital medical center was destroyed. The hospital, a symbol of hope and healing, turned into a symbol of death and destruction of the deliberate demolition of medical work. Seeing the remnants of a patterned, bombed, was out of the heart.

I stayed 22 days in Gaza. Gaza had an honor to visit, to serve and learn from the firm people of Gaza. Their ruthless courage and determination will remain with me until they die.

Although he never witnessed I could not imagine, I didn’t want to leave. I wanted to stay. I felt a deep sin that I was behind my colleagues and my patients in the United States that I did not stay enough.

Feeling this constant heartache, I can’t understand the growing number of people who get used to the daily reports of Palestinian deaths and torn bodies and hungry children.

As human and health workers, we cannot get out of Gaza. We cannot stay silent and passively. In the Gaza Strip, we must talk about the destruction of health and attacks to our colleagues.

More and less healthcare is allowed to enter medical missions. Has prevented all medical supplies from entering the existing block.

As health professionals, we mobilize the immediate lifting of the siege and to demand free for medical missions. We should not stop volunteering to help health teams fighting in Gaza. Such actions to negotiate and volunteer provide hope for our colleagues in Gaza, not abandoned.

Let’s not allow Gaza to be the symbol of destruction. Instead, be an example of an unshakable spirit.

Talk, talk and move – The date also remembers the victory of human compassion, not just the tragedy.

Let us support the human dignity.

Let’s say to Gaza, you are not alone!

Humanity is on your side!
