Militant Islam Dept: They rushed him into emergency surgery. Now, a month later, he is still in hospital. He has been diagnosed with cancer and has lost control of his legs because of the damage caused by the tumour, according to CBC. He has been fighting militant Islam since his teen years in Pakistan and on February 16, my father went into St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto for back pain and leg numbness and the doctors ended up finding a massive tumour on his spine. The regime for the next few months: getting tested, chemo, radiation and re-learning how to walk. It has been a challenging time for our family, as you might imagine. To my surprise, what is helping us through it has been the healing power of social media. You see, my father is Tarek Fatah, a controversial public figure to some people, the founder of the Muslim Canadian Congress, a secular Muslim organization that advocates for the separation of church and state. As
reported in the news.
