Rifqa Bary Diagnosed with cancer

Teen age Christian convert Rifqa Bary now faces the daunting prospect of cancer treatment. Ironic as she is just months away from achieving liberty by reaching her majority in August. Read the Columbus Dispatch and Atlas Shrugs accounts, here and here.

I spoke with Pastor Jamal Juvanjee, one of Miss Bary's friends. He indicated that the cancer had been detected within the past two weeks given symptoms including severe vaginal bleeding. An outpatient exploratoy procedure will be conducted tomorow in Columbus, Ohio in view of her affliction.

It is unclear as to what form of cancer Bary has contracted. Given that she came from a honor shame society there are several possibilities. Clearly those will have to be addressed in the context of possible investigation of childhood abuse.

In the interim, Rifqa Bary deserves all of our deepest thoughts and prayers for her recovery so that she might flourish in her freedom and liberty so close at hand.

I am so sorry to learn of Rifqa's cancer. Life just does not seem fair in so many cases. So close to freedom and now this. I hope that all will work out in the end for her successful recovery and walk to freedom.
