Medical student Azza Abu Mustafa recounts she was doing her shift at the ER at Nasser Hsopital when her cousin came in calling out for her. Told her to grab her things and come to the morgue because her father's body was there. She says she never thought that she would mourn him as a martyr and that she was looking forward to the day he would celebrate her graduation.
