Bring Amir Hekmati Home

Created by R.J. on October 02, 2012

Dear President Obama
I know you have so much on your mind right now, so many concerns and world problems but I would like to draw one very personal problem back to the forefrount of your mind. There is a small family in Michigan who has been grieving for a year about the unfair imprisonment of their son Amir Hekmati in Iran. Amir's father is dying from brain cancer and only a few months to live. I know you can see how now more than ever we need to get Amir home. Don't let Ali die without seeing his son one last time or don't let Amir carry the burden for the rest of his life of not being there when his dad died. You have such a caring heart and I truly believe you will do all you can to make this happen for this family and all their neighbors and friends who have been praying for them.
