While doctors had not initially been sure that Naseem would survive until Thanksgiving, he could be home with his family as early as Christmas, Rosenkranz said.

"I'm sure everybody goes through denial, depression, but I have a strong faith in God and know he isn't going to give me anything I can't handle," Hasni said. She and her husband, Ghazi Habib Hasni, have two other children, a boy, 13, and a girl, 8.

"Everybody I know is praying for him — my husband's family in North Africa, Tunisia, and my family is in Great Britain, and friends and family here, too."

Although his condition is listed as critical, Naseem has been doing well and will be weaned off the machine that is helping him breathe in the next day or two, Rosenkranz said.

"I haven't been able to hold him yet," Hasni said wistfully, "but I'm hoping to get him home before Christmas."

She was in the local news in South Florida, speaking with no accent and using one of the oldest sayings "God never gives you something which you cannot carry"...The reason I remembered her saying that is because of my always present reaction when I hear people reciting it ... God is not giving us anything which we should carry...no matter what the hardship, our faith should allow HIM carry us, that is what He wants to do for us, we're just too foolish, most of the times, to remember it.
