Welcome To The Shitshow T-shirt

 Feb. 23, 2024, 8:14 PM +07 By Mirna Alsharif It only took a moment for a bullet to lodge itself into 14-year-old Salma Alyazji’s back. A month later, it is still there. “It didn’t change part of my life, it changed my entire life,” Salma said. The 14-year-old scholarship student was shot Jan. 25, said her father, Ehab Alyazji, and, in the Welcome To The Shitshow T-shirt also I will do this month since, Salma is no closer to getting the critical surgery she needs, even as the injury transforms her life. It’s not clear who fired the bullet that hit Salma. There were no clashes nearby at the time but she heard one shot ring through the building where her family and many others were sheltering in Khan Younis in southern Gaza. She went to check to make sure no one was hurt, when she heard a second shot. “I felt a lot of pain and heat in my back and I began to get dizzy,” she said. When she put her hand to her back, it came back covered in blood. “I began to scream and I fainted,” Salma told an NBC News crew in Gaza.

She was on scholarship at the prestigious Horizons Academy in Gaza, where her father said she was a top student. She wrote poetry and dreamed of studying abroad. But now, she said, her ambitions have been drowned out by the anxiety of living with a bullet in her back. She is in pain, and struggles to perform daily life tasks without help.

She spends her time preoccupied with the bullet: that it is leaking toxic

chemicals into her body, that it may be causing her back to ossify and stiffen. She fears that it could move from its precarious place, between her spinal cord and her liver, and paralyze her if she’s lucky — and kill her if she’s not. “Imagine a bullet in the Welcome To The Shitshow T-shirt also I will do this body of a human like her — in the spinal column, near the spinal cord,” her father said. Alyazji wants to find a way to get her surgery to remove the bullet and the danger it poses, but also “to change the psychological state that she’s in,” he said, “to take her out of harm’s way, where at any moment, anything might happen to her.” “Where can I take her for treatment?” he said. “There is no capability entirely,” he said of the hospitals in Gaza, which are overwhelmed and collapsing under the weight of Israeli bombardment. From the moment Salma was shot to the ongoing crushing strain of waiting for surgery, her life has become another harrowing illustration of how violence ripples through a life in wartime Gaza. The day she was shot, her father said, it took seven hours before the Israel Defense Forces gave permission for an ambulance to pick her up, even as she was writhing in panic and pain, slipping out of consciousness, her lungs bleeding. She was taken to a field hospital in Rafah where an X-ray showed the bullet lodged near her spine. At the field hospital, doctors told her family that they didn’t have the capacity to remove the bullet. In Gaza, where medical emergencies pour into the hospital in a relentless flood, even if paralysis or death loomed, Salma was stable. After three days, the hospital released her. Her only choices, her family was told, was to live with the bullet inside her, or leave Gaza for medical attention.
