Lauralee Morris: Its been more than a decade since that life, when an urge to give back and explore global health issues prompted Morris to close her practice, according to The Star. Its very sunny, very bright . . . very dry, very little vegetation, she said over the phone Friday from Azraq, a refugee camp some 50 kilometres from the Syrian border and her home for at least the next two months. Its being constructed quickly to house some of the more than two million people fleeing the ongoing conflict in Syria and The Jordanian desert is hot, flat and dry, and the hospital will be a series of tents, a far cry from the family practice Dr. Lauralee Morris ran in Brampton. Stints in China, Kenya, Mongolia and South Sudan followed, and on Wednesday night her plane touched down in Jordan, bringing her face to face with the Syrian conflict.
