A Mother's Heartbreaking Tale: 'Suddenly, My Child is Gone'

Sara immigrated from Yemen to Israel with her husband and son, David. They arrived at an immigrant camp in Rosh Haayin. After a few months, David was taken to Hadassah Hospital at the camp. Sara describes visiting him several times a day, although she could only see him through a window. David was eight months old. One morning, she arrived at the hospital to find his room empty. She approached a nurse at the entrance, who told her that her son had died. Sara asked to see him, alive or dead, but her request was denied. Sara and her husband, Chaim, had nine more children.
