Mohamed Judeh is in the wheelchair. He lives in East Jerusalem with his mother. He was struck in the head by an Israeli rifle bullet which took off the top corner of his cranium and some of his brain. Mohamed was taken to Saudi Arabia where a team of surgeons closed the wound with a titanium plate. Mohamed will never walk again and is learning how to speak and count with the help of the East Jerusalem YMCA.
