Shira and Amichai Ish-Ran, parents of the infant, who was born prematurely after his mother was wounded in a terror attack near the settlement of Ofra last week, thanked Sunday the Medical personnel that struggled for four days to save their son's life at Sha'arei Tzedek Medical Center in Jerusalem.
"During the three days our baby lived, he united us —secular, religious, ultra-Orthodox, right and left-wing members, who came to support us. I'm proud to be part of this nation," Amichai said.
Shira echoed his sentiments, adding, "I had lost a lot of blood in the terror attack and received many blood donations. The blood of the people of Israel is flowing through my veins right now.
"I feel that the Jewish nation is supporting me and strengthening me in every step of the way," she went on to say.
