We sent Saif off into the Gaza unknown a month ago, and thank God he returned to us today happy, healthy, alert, and gaining weight! He and his mother spent last night in our Jerusalem guesthouse to be sure he could reach his 10 am appointment on time this morning. Which he did (almost) even after he and mother squeezed in a visit to pray on the Temple Mount early this morning.

Saif’s doctors seemed happy with the way his heart is functioning. And his nurses, generous and loving as always, resupplied his mother with “Baby Calorie” and MCT oil to help him keep putting on the kilos. They hope to see him again at the end of January.
