It's obvious to see that Nurse Areej loves her work and the people she cares for. The smiles on both their faces made my eyes tear up a bit. Despite the devastating losses the refugee woman has had to endure, as well as worrying about an unknown future, she will most definitely forget Nurse Areej. Bless them both...
