The suicide bombing attack on an Egged number 12 bus in the Talpiot area of Jerusalem took place over a month ago. Fourteen people were injured in the attack including Edan Levi-Dadon, 16, who was burned over her entire body.

Edan was transported by MDA EMTs Menachem Estrik and Danny Gur, paramedic Zohar Lomer, and MDA youth volunteers Shira Bruchi-Alush. She was taken to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital where she is not listed in stable condition with a long road of rehabilitation and therapy ahead.

Edan’s dad was interviewed by the media a number of weeks ago, explaining that Edan does not have a computer, which makes her stay in the hospital increasingly difficult. Hearing the father’s pained words, MDA Chief of Operations Eli Bin decided he must act and this is exactly what he did. Dad was informed that MDA was going to get her a computer to assist her mental state during this difficult time. Bin turned to Israel’s Cellcom Company and they provided Edan not only with a computer but a connectivity package to permit her to be ‘one line’.

The crew that evacuated her from the bomb scene visited her in the hospital to present her with the computer.

Bin stated that seeing her smile was enough for him, explaining he hopes the computer and connectivity package will contribute to her rehabilitation process.
