Mutilated Afghan girl to have surgery in US
Thank you, Dr. Grossman.
The 18-year-old, identified only as Bibi Aisha (Miss Aisha), told Time her nose and ears were cut off by her abusive husband — with Taliban approval — to punish her for running away.
The controversial photo appeared beside the headline, “What Happens if We Leave Afghanistan.”
Dr. Peter H. Grossman, co-director of the Grossman Burn Centers based in Sherman Oaks, said his wife, Rebecca Grossman, who chairs the Calabasas-based Grossman Burn Foundation, saw Aisha on television and knew they could help her.
