My kid is turning 13.

Last night, while we were talking about his birthday, I realized that something, a word, a name, is constantly popping in my head. Confused, I started putting the pieces of letters together. It came out as: "Hossein Fahmideh"

I was bewildered... What on earth is this? Who is this?....it took a few minutes for my brain to process this information, digging up deep corners of my memory....Then Boom....a sharp pain in my heart and I went numb.

I have Never been struck by the cruelty and brutality of WAR as much as that moment.
