without borders

today my mom leaves for yemen; a bohra medical clinic is being established there, and doctors from america are flying over to volunteer their time and efforts as the clinic becomes fully functioning.

loaded down with medical books that she will donate to the clinic, my mom leaves tonight. i am very excited for her, and know the experience will be an amazing one. however since she doesn't journal or show any interest in taking a camera, my interviewing skills will be put to the test when she comes home. i want to know as many details as she will be able to remember.

i'm proud of her initiative in going off to yemen to offer her services. it reminds me that it has been years since i have been involved in community service (with the exception of jamaat khidmat), and renews my resolve to get re-involved.
