I am an OB/GYN physician and Palestinian American mother to a 7-month-old, Zaina. My husband Yahia and I are both from Gaza living in the diaspora in Chicago. We both can trace our families’ roots in Palestine for multiple generations dating back hundreds of years. So much of our love story and vows are built on being kids from the same hometown, and on our love and longing for where we are from.
