           I’m not sure Doris will manage the whole 98km of #StrideForGaza for @MedicalAidPal but she will look very cute whilst trying, especially in her new outfit knitted by one of our amazing Medical Students 🍉 If you would like to sponsor her (and me) we would really appreciate it 👇🏻 
           I’m again undertaking a #StrideForGaza event to raise funds for @MedicalAidPal covering 98km between October 8-31. I know I have asked you all before, but as the situation in Gaza gets worse the people need aid more than ever.  https://t.co/ElqmHPgQyg

             Thank you for sharing this video of Abed at work @MSF_france He was not only a credit to the physiotherapy profession, he was a credit to @MSF, the people of Gaza and shows his exceptional commitment to rehabilitation in the most challenging of conditions he worked in ❤️🩹 
           Abed El Hameed Qaradaya, kinésithérapeute pour #MSF, est décédé le 5 octobre, des suites de ses blessures causées par une attaque israélienne à #Gaza. Cette vidéo tournée en janvier dernier, montre le travail qu'Abed accomplissait auprès des patients.

             I knew Abood since 2009 where we have worked together in a field hospital in Gaza! Humanitarian workers should not be a target, stop the war. #CeasefireNow
          
           Today another dear colleague in Gaza killed Abed was one of a kind, qualified in Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy An outstanding clinician, manager, friend A physiotherapy leader respected & loved by all who knew him Huge loss to our community, he is irreplaceable 💔

             https://t.co/kIdnnAouJr  This video was made almost 10 years ago but Abed could easily have been describing his work in Gaza today. But today he is gone, killed waiting for a bus to take him to work with @MSF . He was a giant of rehabilitation in Gaza and the most amazing person

             Omar and Abed. Occupational Therapist and Physiotherapist. Friends and colleagues. Both now dead after a drone strike while waiting for their staff bus in Gaza wearing @MSF vests Between them over 40 years of experience and dedication in rehabilitation Never forgotten ❤️🩹

             Images out of Gaza today are the worst I've ever seen. Children piled on a hospital floor, bloody, injured, dying, dead. A toddler with her intestines outside her body while another screams in terror, reaching out for safety. I can't express this feeling. The rage, the shame.
