"I was born again on July 19. My birthday is no longer March 4. I was born
yesterday on July 19." Nasser added, "I have no words to describe my
overwhelming sense of happiness and joy. It is like a miracle after 20 years to
be home and celebrate Eid together with my family. I want to thank everyone, all the people who worked very
hard and spared no efforts to make this possible."
