"Lets fly home" is a story about a 4 year old girl who was diagnosed with cerebral palsy when she was one year old.


 Her mother Lina decided to write a story about Miryana and her 2 brothers to help rise awarness about her disability and give some hope to other kids that there is a treatment but understanding the problem is the main key to find it.

Bayt Baytak (Morning show 8-11) talked to Lina Abu Samha, Miryana's mother about her experience and the idea of writing a book about your own child. Lina couldn't make it without the help of others, like the illustrator artist and a proofreader.

The story will help Miryana's family to cover the cost of her surgery which is called Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) and it will help the community to accept those with disability.

Diala AlAzzeh interviews Lina who explained the reaction of Miryana and her siblings when they read the story.
