 Daughter of Sheena-42 The same day, our third daughter was born at midnight. Next day I was discharged from the hospital. Samad had hugged Somayeh. He danced for joy; laughed and said: “This one is like me; pretty and cute.” My mother, sisters, and sisters-in-law had come to help me. Sheena had suffered a stroke recently and couldn’t walk.
