    A three month old baby girl from Gaza will be arriving on Thursday morning (July 17, 2014) at Wolfson Medical Center to undergo life-saving heart surgery through Save a Child’s Heart. The baby's condition is severe and without the needed heart treatment she will not survive. She will be brought in a Palestinian ambulance to the Erez Crossing, transferred to an Israeli ambulance and brought to Wolfson hospital in Holon. The Israeli team of doctors and nurses at Wolfson are ready to receive the baby and give her the needed medical intention immediately.
