“Our mission here is to improve the healing process of wounded soldiers” – Dr. Aram Gazarian
DECEMBER 13, 2021
Aram Gazarian, in conversation with Lara Tcholakian, speaks about his mission with the French medical team in Armenia since the 2020 Artsakh War, and about his experience working with French and local medical experts and wounded soldiers. He reflects on the ways in which his inherited family history have played an important role in his childhood as an Armenian in France, and on his existence, his identity, sense of resilience and service for the good. He shares his thoughts on the possibility of transforming pain into good, and the role of having a mission in life that allows us to be open to opportunities, to have a sense of necessity, and hope.
