Ive known for some time what my lifes work is. using my hands as tools to relieve suffering. When Kayla traveled back home to visit her family in Arizona in May of 2013. she spoke about her experiences at the Prescott Kiwanis Club where her father was a member. After recalling helping a Syrian man. whose wife had been murdered. to reunite with a 6yearold relative he was desperately searching for after their refugee camp was bombed. Kayla said: This story is not rare in Syria. This is the reality for Syrians two and a half years on. When Syrians hear Im an American. they ask. "Where is the world?" All I can do is cry with them. because I dont know. After spending time with the refugees. Kayla told the Kiwanis Club she was totally drawn in. and that she "cant do enough" to help. She recalled stories of children being hurt by unexploded bombs. women forced into early marriages. elementary schools targeted for bombing by the Syrian regime. and people living in caves to escape the bombing.
