Reunion

This is a very short post and is squarely aimed at my friends and family who I know are reading this (and if they aren’t, those who are will tell them):
I’m still in Syria, not far from home … and I haven’t been arrested (obviously)
But far more importantly, I’ve moved to a safer place and expect to stay here a while … and most importantly, my father is here as well.
He’s looking good; he’s taking his pills and doing fine health wise (so relax mom!) and is as feisty as ever … we’re actually relaxing now and, our friends who are hosting us even are able to get BBC broadcasts … so we saw the newest Doctor Who episode (featuring the positively yummy Karen Gillan as a pirette … no details … SPOILERS!)

Hang in there and keep one or two steps ahead of those bastards - I can't even get Dr. Who here in Chicago!

I truly hope all goes well with you and your family. One day we will read about you, maybe even a book of yours, and many will know what the word corage really means.
A big hug with all our love from us in England.

You are my newest hero. We have very little in common except that I'm originally American. I've lived in Israel now for over 30 years. I hope that what is going on over there will eventually make us better neighbors and give us the freedom to visit each other.

Stay safe and keep fighting for your freedom. Best of luck.

Amina I am an Israeli writing to you from Jerusalem and wishing you and your people the kind of freedom that all people around the world deserve. Deep inside every Israeli regardless of political point of view or religion know that if people like you will win and true democracy will prevail we will all (Syrian Palestinian and Israelis) will be free, as a path for peace will be easy to reach. Hopefully a message from an Israeli does not put you in greater danger. If it is pls. delete. Salam Shalom

Glad to hear that you are still doing happy, simple things like watching Doctor Who! I'm continuing to send good thoughts towards you, your father, and all of you in Syria.
