Motherland Afghanistan
I found the movie very interesting, but was also very saddened to see the poor healthcare system in Afghanistan. I thought it was great that he came to Afghanistan with his family to live in poor conditions to help make a difference. I could understand his frustration in not having the proper help, supplies or support to fully make a difference. I was happy that he was able to make a second trip that was more successful. I bet he felt better, and it was great to see him be able to be successful. It was hard to see the poor conditions that these people have to live in. I was also amazed that many of the patients had to bring their own supplies and had to travel great distances to get to the hospital. He said the hospital was in good condition and clean, but when I saw it, all I could think of was hospitals in the United States and it did not come close. I would not have called the hospital in Afghanistan, knowing what it is like here. I hope more improvements can be made to improve the conditions and train doctors to be better able to help the people of Afghanistan.
