| BAGHDAD (Reuters) - In the nine months since she was born, tiny Fatima Jubouri first lost her father, then gunmen killed her mother and uncle and she was left alone and uncared for in a pile of garbage in Baghdad. Police found Fatima, malnourished and suffering from dehydration in Iraq's scorching summer heat, hidden under rubbish in one of southern Baghdad's most violent districts. How she got there is not clear, although there is speculation her mother hid her before she was killed. For now, Fatima is the centre of attention, doted on by nurses and other visitors to her ward. But soon, and no one at the hospital knows exactly when, U.S. soldiers will return to take her to an orphanage to join her five siblings. ... adoption is forbidden in Muslim countries. Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground If you had not have fallen Then I would not have found you Angel flying too close to the ground And I patched up your broken wing And hung around a while Tried to keep your spirits up While you were feelin' down I knew someday That you would fly away For love's the greatest healer to be found So leave me if you need to I will still remember Angel Flying too close to the ground Fly on... Fly on... Past the speed of sound I'd rather see you up Than see you down Leave me if you need to I will still remember Angel, Flying too close to the ground (Willie Nelson) |
