Nidhal's case is heart breaking, the reconstructive surgery she requires is not available in Iraq. If you are a maxillo-facial surgeon or health professional and think you can help please contact us immediately. In the meantime we are sponsoring Nidhal to help with her ongoing costs of living with this severe medical condition in Iraq.
To see with the eyes of another, to hear with the ears of another,
to feel with the heart of another. This seems to me an admissible definition of what we call social feeling and caring. Only when we put ourselves in Nidhal's shoes can we even begin to comprehend.~Assil Russell
