When we're under attack, we have negative feelings.
Electrochemical reactions create feelings. These chemicals may stay in our body a while, depend on how intense the experience is. Negative feelings can create negative thoughts. These negative thoughts could produce further unfavourable feelings (more chemicals).
Depending on the severity of the situation, we may need a medical assistance and/ or a remedy to induce pleasant feelings, such as having fun. Some supplements may also be helpful in breaking the cycle. As I’ve previously stated, a nice music triggers the release of dopamine (happy chemical) in the brain. This can be helpful for us as well.
"Under attack" song performed by a murder robot is a nice music. It could be helpful for cheering up a person. Please click below to listen.

Hello everyone. I'm hoping you'll have the time to read through this...
Some of you may have noticed from my pictures that I was in Jamaica a while back.... Being the "unconventional traveller" that I am, I skipped the typical resorts of Negril and went to Kingston. Albeit the mixed views around the capital, it's actually my favourite place in Jamaica. During my last visit, I wanted to explore the ghettos of Kingston (some photos being on Flickr). These are often places of gang-warfare and where shootings happen at unpredictable moments. I ended up spending a day between two ghettos: Southside and Tel-Aviv. It is in the latter where I came across Kalia (I've posted a picture of here on Flickr before: www.flickr.com/photos/mariannaf/11317308736/)
Kalia is a 2 y.o born with the rare condition known as VACTERL. She has an anus malformation (her intestines are cut out from her stomach and wrapped around her), a heart anomaly, a weak kidney and disfigured hand.
Because I do believe in the power of social media, I posted her picture & story on my FB, but the settings were among my friends only.
Recently I decided to switch the settings to "public" and in a week it has been shared by over 2000 people. It equally caught the attention of Jamaica's leading newspaper The Gleaner. They featured her story in the Sunday Issue (which has x2 circulation vs weekdays) with a full spread on page 2.
There are many struggles that the family faces- one being financial means. I have set up a fundraiser after the release of the article to help support Kalia. Im working with two close friends of mine who are based out of Jamaica and helping me on the case.
I'm spreading the message here... if you would like to help by donating or sharing the link with others, please do. Any form of support is appreciated to help Kalia. The family are GOOD, honest people and I would love to see Kalia in a better state. Most of the people living in these neighbourhoods are friendly, warm people. But they are caught in a vicious cycle that is beyond them.
Here is the link to donate online: www.gofundme.com/HELPKALIAPART1
and here is the link to the article on The Gleaner: jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20140119/lead/lead22.html#dis...
Additionally, if you are in the medical field or know of someone who can help please message me.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Love,
Marianna
Dr. John Jarstead, an ophthalmologist from the University of Missouri, performs cataract surgery on a patient in an operating room aboard the hospital ship USNS Comfort (T-AH 20) at Esmeraldas, Ecuador, Oct. 25, 2018. The Comfort is on an 11-week medical support mission to Central and South America as part of U.S. Southern Command’s Enduring Promise initiative. Working with health and government partners in Ecuador, Peru, Colombia and Honduras, the embarked medical team will provide care on board and at land-based medical sites, helping to relieve pressure on national medical systems caused partly by an increase in cross-border migrants. The deployment reflects the United States’ enduring promise of friendship, partnership and solidarity with the Americas. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Kris R.

“When quarantine restrictions were introduced in the country to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, we saw a sharp increase of calls to our hotline”, recalls Yevhen Kaplin, head of the humanitarian mission of the Ukrainian NGO Proliska.
“For example, a social worker from Travneve would call and say: ‘I need to visit 10 older persons who live near me, but there is another elderly person whose house is in Gladosovo, 6 kilometres away, and it takes half a day to only go back and forth. What should I do?’ – This is not an isolated case. In eastern Ukraine many frontline villages are far apart,” he says.

Women at Gawhar Shad University are learning nursing and health education focusing on Maternal Child Health.
Afghanistan is one of the deadliest places on earth for women and children. Women have a lifetime risk of dying from a pregnancy-related cause. According to the World Health Organization, few deliveries in Afghanistan are attended by trained health workers, which is the single largest contributor to maternal mortality and disability. Some will not live to see school age. Direct Relief has partnered with the Afghan Institute for Learning (AIL) and the Abbott Fund to help reverse the country's high maternal mortality rate and increase the survival and overall health of infants and children.
Direct Relief and Abbott Fund began supporting AIL to train female midwives to provide skilled assistance during labor and delivery, as well as care for infants and children. Many women have completed the training, with most now employed in clinics and hospitals.
Abbott Fund has partnered with Direct Relief to provide grants to AIL. Abbott has provided product donations to AIL, including rehydration solutions, antibiotics, multivitamins, and nutritional supplements.
Kateryna is a social worker and head of the humanitarian centre in the village of Zhovanka, Donetsk region. “I personally take care of 20 people, all of them with low mobility. They almost never leave their houses," she says.
The social worker helps with everything she can: buying and delivering groceries, medicines and hygiene products. "I cannot tell you how much easier my work has become with the bicycle. Delivering heavy packages, but even just going around and checking on people, comforting them with simple human attention… it got so much easier. I also feel very much supported and encouraged myself.”

After years of armed conflict and impoverishment, the average life expectancy at birth of Afghan citizens is only middle age. Most of the country lacks sustainable access to safe water supplies and sanitation. Primary public health concerns are malaria, tuberculosis, and epidemics of cholera, measles, and meningitis.
Direct Relief provides medical material assistance to Afghanistan, focusing on maternal-child health and core medical aid.
Direct Relief has partnered with the Afghan Institute of Learning (AIL) and the Abbott Fund in Kabul and Herat to create a three-pronged Maternal-Child Health Program that focuses on education and training, nutritional support, and clinical services. Direct Relief also supplied AIL with a maternal-child health module designed to provide supplies for a fully outfitted maternal ward, including three birthing beds, an oxygen concentrator, neo-infant meter, ultrasound, suction machine, and OB-GYN instruments.
In Afghanistan, Direct Relief focuses on improving maternal-and-child health.

A child is screened for malnutrition by an International Medical Corps assessment team in South Sudan. The width of his arm shows this child is in the healthy range and should be safe from malnutrition for now.
Amid ongoing violence in South Sudan, International Medical Corps teams are conducting nutrition assessments and preparing to deliver emergency medical and primary health care to communities that previously were cut off from help by the fighting, with support from UK aid. Since December 2013 approximately 490,600 people have been displaced by the violence across South Sudan.
Despite the highly unstable security situation, International Medical Corps is working in the towns of Awerial and Malakal, where tens of thousands of people are seeking refuge. Across Awerial County nearly 100,000 people have sought safety, having been forced from their homes by fierce fighting across the Nile in the town of Bor. While large concentrations of IDPs in the town of Minkamon are increasingly well-served by UN and other humanitarian groups, International Medical Corps has focused on smaller isolated communities that have so far received little or no help. Mobile medical clinics, providing basic primary health care, maternal health and nutrition screenings have begun to reach IDPs living in makeshift camps around the village of Yelakot.
Screening of more than 500 children under five years old has revealed the potential for a hidden nutrition crisis as the most vulnerable members of the community are unable to acquire food with the necessary nutritional value. An assessment team working in the town found that one in five children were malnourished and one in ten children were suffering from severe acute malnutrition. International Medical Corps is preparing to provide community-based treatment of malnutrition and referrals for the most severe cases.
International Medical Corps is collaborating with UNICEF to also begin providing comprehensive mental health and psychosocial support to survivors of trauma and gender-based violence and clinical case management in Malakal, Awerial, and Bor.
Elsewhere in South Sudan, International Medical Corps is providing primary health care and reproductive health services at the UN House and Tomping camps in Juba. The organization is also working alongside WHO and UNICEF to vaccinate children under five and supporting the Ministry of Health in mass vaccination campaigns in UN House camp.
Rapid assessment teams, including doctors and logisticians have arrived in the towns of Benitu and Bor in order to conduct initial needs assessment and establish medical services.

Many children in Afghanistan are underweight, and some of these are moderate to severe cases. AIL instituted a nutrition education program at its clinics in Kabul. Clinic staff trains mothers of malnourished children how to cook healthy foods and teaches the women and children in the program about safe drinking water, how to prevent malnutrition, and other nutrition topics. Abbott Fund has partnered with Direct Relief to provide grants to AIL. Abbott has provided product donations to AIL, including rehydration solutions, antibiotics, multivitamins, and nutritional supplements.

With funding from the European Union, UNHCR provided 228 bicycles and 35 electric tricycles to communities located near the contact line in eastern Ukraine.
This transport helps medical and social workers, who are often the only people available to provide help in isolated localities, reach more people with home-based care, such as bringing food, pensions and medical assistance.
