Because of Adam's specialty, he would have only seen children who survived a gunshot to the head long enough to make it to reconstructive surgery. Not many did. He saw one. It was still shocking to him. Adam had served in Iraq as a surgeon in the U.S. Army. He treated lots of injured people, but what he was seeing in Gaza was different.

The medical worker I spoke with who spent the most time in Gaza also saw the most kids shot, 50. She showed me a picture she took of a scan of a five or six year old skull. There's a bullet in the middle of it. She was told this child was playing with their friends when an armed quadcopter drone came overhead and shot the child. Dr. Alia Kattan also responded to Froese's call out.
