Hi friends. It’s been a long time since I shared our story. Life in Gorom Refugee Camp is still very difficult and we’re still struggling with food, safe shelter, clean water and other basic needs If you can share our story or help in any way, we’d be deeply grateful.Thank you for still being here

I check Facebook 1-2x a month for family stuff. Turns out a few days ago my dad made a long post begging for understanding about trans people by his fellow boomers. Last paragraphs are below. Dad doesn’t always get it 100% right. He doesn’t need to. He loves and defends me; that’s all that matters
H. I have a trans daughter. She struggled to learn who she was.
She finally " got it" several years ago and has transitioned into a beautiful adult woman. I've seen the struggle up close. She has been mocked and beaten for being herself. I love her.
Personally I dont think I have the strength of character to do as she has, should I have been in that circumstance.
G. And finally..l just had to get this off my chest as I read, see and overhear uneducated, bigoted posts, stories, and conversation. Here's a testimony of a parent of a beautiful child..there are more of us than you know.
Hope this helps.
If I offends you..buh bye.
If you learned something..youre welcome.
IYKYK. PEACE AND LOVE ARE THE ONLY ANSWERS.

Hi friends :) !!.. Sorry I’ve been quiet for almost weeks .The network here has been very poor. Sadly, we’re still struggling with food and a safe place to sleep. I’ve also been feeling unwell for the past two days. We’re still here, still hoping for better days. Thank you for staying with us.

I'm a queer refugee in Refugee Camp, South Sudan. My partner, two trans friends and I are sleeping outside and struggling to find food. So far, UNHCR has only registered us.We're asking for mutual aid for shelter, food, mattresses, blankets and other basic needs. Please DM if you can help or share.

Yesterday we cooked the last food we had. This morning, there was nothing left, so my partner had a cup of warm water instead. We're holding on and hoping for better days. If you're able to help with food or other basic needs we would be deeply grateful. Thank you for being here with us.

Today I want to share something personal. Life in a refugee camp is full of uncertainty but having my partner beside me gives me strength. We continue to face each day together, hoping for safety and a chance to rebuild our lives. Thank you for walking this journey with us.

Hello everyone. This is my first update. My partner and I are living in Gorom Refugee Camp, South Sudan. We have been registered by UNHCR but we have not yet received food or other assistance. Right now, we urgently need a safe place to stay, food, blankets, a mattress and other basic necessities.
