You Cannot Be Syria
“There are no doctors left in Syria and the need for medical help there is sometimes beyond comprehension. It’s odd to think that this has become normal life for me. It’s normal to work under these conditions, to be threatened with arrest on one side and kidnap on the other, to have to conduct major surgery underground and constantly see buildings around us reduced to rubble. In the last year alone our hospital was targeted five times. That’s become normal.” The daily battle to save lives in Aleppo.
