The unbelievable kindness of strangers.

I read this article this morning because the title caught me:

In harm's way: The tragedy of Rakan Hassan and the impossibility of a Hippocratic Oath for journalists

So I then read this:

Part one: Rakan’s war


Part two: As healing begins, a painful decision

Part three: Restless patient, agonizing choice


Part four: At homecoming, a gift elicits wonder

And . . . The end of Rakan’s war

I am close to tears (read: in tears). PLEASE read all of this when you have a chance.

Also, Kevin Cullen is an amazing writer . . . man.
