Iraq's first children's cancer hospital opens in Basra
BASRA, Iraq - Iraq's Minister of Health, Dr. Salih Mahdi opened the doors to the Basra Children's Hospital, the largest and first specialty care facility in Basra, Iraq, Oct. 21.
After six years and $166 million, the proposal that stemmed from former First Lady Laura Bush's desire to provide health care for the children of Iraq has finally become a reality, said Peter Bodde, assistant chief of mission, U.S. Embassy Baghdad.
The Basrah Children's Hospital is a state-of-the art acute and referral care facility that specializes in pediatric oncology.
