Hussein Hussein came to Arizona on November 30, 2005. He suffered multiple traumas to his face as a result of a land mine explosion in Iraq. Healing the Children's goal for Hussein is to restore vision in his one remaining eye. |

For two months, Hussein and his Aunt Njeiha stayed at the Ronald Mcdonald House in Phoenix. After learning that Hussein would need to stay in Arizona for a year, Aunt Njeiha returned to Iraq. Hussein was taken in by the Karam host family. |

Hussein is receiving services from Phoenix Children's Hospital, Dr. Brendan Cassidy, Dr. Jung Dao and Dr. Shepard Bryan. Read Hussein's story, "Against All Odds," as published in The Arizona Republic in April 2006. |
