Vary’s Last Day in the Hospital - Leaving for Iraq Tomorrow!
November 16, 2009 by Joshua
This is the happiest we’ve seen her since her arrival in Istanbul. Laughing with us, playing with us, dancing to the music playing on her room TV, she was as happy and healthy as could be hoped for.
The feeling of watching this little girl play is… well, what we work for. She is healed. She has been given new life. Her mom is at rest, no longer fearing her daughter’s heart; no longer being forced to live a cautious life because of it.
Vary has been healed, and now boards a plane with something that wasnt there when she left. Hope for the future.
