Mazen said goodbye to his mother alongside his cousins through glass doors at the ICU. “There was a barrier between them,” Nouser said. “Mazen did not get to say goodbye to his mom by touching her hand or anything, it was at a distance.” thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
Aly was the family’s “big sister” and always offered help to those in need, Nouser said. Mazen is “a mirror of his mother,” she said, and offers the same generosity to those that need it. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
