I sent them an email about the possibility of work, and we left within a week and a half. Most of these people still had family members that were just captured by ISIS, and who were very traumatized. Home life in warMy wife is very connected to the work and its mission. And we'd come back to a big house where we take showers, there's a functioning family and hot food. The kids do miss out on having a steady community, but their community is always there when they get back.
