            After her father was killed she was deported with her mother. After a half hour  walk a Turk took her to his house.

            Tooma lived seven years as a maid servant in this place. Later the Turk wanted to marry her but Tooma refused and fled to her grand mother. Both of them fled to Aleppo travelling at night. We received her on April 30.

 

 

As far as we know she has no relatives.

            Tooma’s mother in the meantime had come to Aleppo. Tooma took a place as a servant and is supporting her mother too.
