Taim: a critical surgery ahead

It was a normal day; nothing was out of the ordinary for Taim who would have never thought he would lose a person close to his heart out of the blue.

Well this is exactly what happened when their house was bombed and crumbled into the ground taking Taim’s father with them.

Shrapnel and smoke filled the space as Taim looked around in disbelief. After a while he realized he was also injured… Shrapnel was stuck in his body, and most importantly, in his skull. Being in a war zone, medical equipment was scarce, so the hospital Taim was rushed to couldn’t remove the shrapnel from his skull. It was left as is, as they bandaged him and sent him on his merry way.

This is exactly the life-threatening and dangerous injuries we take care of here at INARA.
