President Obama Hugs Recently Cured Ebola Patient

President Barack Obama today met with Nina Pham, the Dallas nurse who contracted Ebola and has since been cured, in the White House’s Oval Office.

Pham thanked medical practitioners and her support team earlier today upon being released from NIH in Bethesda.

“So with gratitude and respect for everyone’s concern, I ask for my privacy and for my family’s privacy to be respected as I return to Texas and try to get back to a normal life and reunite with my dog, Bentley,” said Pham.
