The images are a digital reproduction of a handwritten letter and accompanying translation donated by Kathy Sa'ade Kenny.
In this letter Suleiman writes from California and pleads with Katrina to stay in Ramallah and asks her to try again to rebuild her relationship with the Farhat family. Suleiman describes his plans to sell the shop in California soon and return to his family. He also explains that his refusal to send Katrina money is rooted in his fear that she will use it to travel back to the US.
These images exist as part of the Katrina Sa'ade Letters collection within the Katrina Sa'ade project of the Planet Bethlehem Archive.
