Ahmed Qudaih says that while his family sheltered from bombings in a school in Gaza, he sat in a Saskatoon condo asking himself if he was dreaming.
Qudaih, 29, lives in Saskatoon as a permanent resident, but he had to leave everything behind to get here — including his three brothers, three sisters and elderly parents.
Now he’s doing everything in his power to bring three family members to Saskatoon.
“My mental health is destroyed. I’m tired all the time, I don’t sleep,” said Qudaih, speaking with the help of a translator during a recent interview with CBC in his Saskatoon refugee sponsor’s condo.
