She stayed awake the whole amputation.” Live testimonies exposing the medical collapse amid the ongoing aggression on the Gaza Strip. الجراح الأمريكي د. مارك بيرلموتر يروي من غـ ـزة: «أجريت عملية بتـ ـر ساق لطفلة تبلغ من العمر خمس سنوات، وكان التخدير الوحيد الذي امتلكناه هو أن طبيب التخدير كان يغني لها... وبقيت مستيقظة طوال عملية البـ ـتر.»." - Source
