In a gesture that moved Jordan to tears, Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah personally intervened to reunite a mother and her son, Mohammad, wrenched apart for over 25 years. After hearing the story earlier this week, Queen Rania took it upon herself to secure a family reunion on Al Forssah at Jordan TV.

Here's an article:
Queen Rania reunites mother and son after 25 years . . . After hearing the story earlier this week, the Queen took it upon herself to secure a family reunion. The emotional separation of Mohammad and his mother was first detailed on Al Forssah, a show produced by Jordan TV in partnership with New TV during the month of Ramadan. Every night the programme focuses on different human-interest stories. Mohammad spoke about the pain of being separated from his mother for so long and the audience was moved to tears when he mentioned that he had only seen her through low-quality pictures exchanged online. Mohammad came on the show hoping he would get the chance to see his mother, so the producers set up a video feed from Gaza earlier this week, and that was the first time he got to see a clear image of her. Moved by the story, Queen Rania worked hard to get the mother to Jordan from Gaza so that she could visit her son for the first time in 25 years. She arrived Monday night and in a surprise move - to the producers, the studio audience, and most significantly to Mohammad - Queen Rania took the mother to the show to reunite with her son.

That is such an inspirational story and I'm sure to a certain degree has even more meaning for Rania who has family in the West Bank.

Such a wonderful article. There is a link to HELLO! about it as well: Queen Rania turns Oprah to reunite mother and son on TV
I wonder if the mother will stay with her son in Jordan for awhile? Or if she will be able to move there to be closer to him.

When it was first announced around two weeks ago that Queen Rania was adopting four schools in order to refurbish them, I actually thought to myself wouldn't it be amazing if Rania actually turned up at the schools with a paintbrush in her hand? and she actually did!
I had no idea it would all happen so quickly though. Its always good to see royals making good on their promises. The Children's Museum was an amazing idea too. Since its opening less than six months ago QR has made several personal visits to the Museum, with her own family and with kids from all over Jordan. I love follow-up visits, QR makes a lot of them. This event is from more than a week ago (October 2) but was missed somehow so Im posting it now: JRF holds annual Ramadan fundraiser AMMAN (JT) - The Jordan River Foundation (JRF) on Tuesday held its annual Ramadan fundraiser event, whose proceeds will be used to support JRF’s different programmes and projects across the Kingdom. The event, attended by Her Majesty Queen Rania, who chairs the foundation, was held to empower the JRF and to strengthen relations with its various sponsors, both individual and corporate.
