"She looked like an angel when I saw her from a distance. Her determination to walk on the prosthetic legs without support was evident in her eyes. I saw hope when I saw Khitam.

The children at Al Hussein are breathtaking, warm and happy that a place like this is available just for them with a staff that treats them like family. For those with a philanthropic heart, there is a special place at the Al Hussein that brings spiritual rewards for the giving heart."

It was quite an inspirational visit."
