Waghdan’s Healing Journey

Waghdan is recovering from her skin graft surgery, I’m happy to report. Not as fast as she and her grandmother would like, I’m sure. They are both eager to go home to Iraq and their family. It has been difficult for them, not only because of Waghdan’s physical challenges, but also because of the cultural differences. I can’t imagine what it has been like for them to be unable to communicate with others freely and to be in constant puzzlement over our foreign customs and beliefs.

Our next installment of their story will be published in Sunday’s paper and on our website. What is new this time is my multimedia show called “Waghdan’s Healing Journey”. You can see it at www.heraldleaderphoto.com.
