Flights Beirut-Montreal: Challenges Faced by Love

The war between the Lebanese army and the Syrian troops was destructive. In 1989, the two hospitals where we worked -- Barbir and Middle East -- suffered the bombing. This last battle caused huge material and human losses to the Lebanese people. Patients no longer dared approaching the hospitals where we worked, during this difficult period, hence the lack of income. The children had been without school; they needed a better future. Technology in our medical fields had left us behind. I understood that the true country is the one that gave me protection. We had lost all hope. We left Beirut the 12th of September 1989.
