Dr. Qamar

I was absolutely sickened when I saw this.  Dr. Qamar was another member of my awesome medical team.  He correctly diagnosed the problem that led to me having heart attacks, starting in my mid 30's.  I consulted with him recently in order to get  clearance for my hernia surgery.

I absolutely adored him.  I required a translator while always meeting with him.  With my hearing loss and his broken English, it could be a challenge at times.  His nurse always knew when to chime in as I'd simply look at her when I needed his words repeated in my language. 

Another awful example of how some religions justify violence in order to promote their ideaology.

John Lennon wrote imagine and the message in that song is even more relevant today than ever . We know people have been killing in the name of religion since or before recorded history and if anything I think its getting worse .

I'm sorry for the loss and I'm sure in light of what you are already going through this stings all the worse . Hugs .
