Our brilliant Dr. Amina Zebboudj has been there for so many of us! As a colleague, a professor, a friend, or a family member, she gives her gifts freely- with passion and commitment to all. Now Amina needs our help. Very unexpectedly, she recently started having difficulty finding her words in all three languages she speaks. Then came the inability to read or write letters. She was admitted to UCLA on Thanksgiving, and tomorrow she will have surgery to remove a 7 mm lesion from her brain. We can all think back to when we needed her help, expertise, and love. Please consider this as we ask for your support to carry her through her recovery.
