LILIAN MUKONYI
My parents took me to the nearest hospital for a check-up and discovered I had Malaria disease.
I was given the medication, but all was in vain. I continued with medication, but there were no changes to my health.
They decided to take me to the witch doctor for further treatment. The man-made small cuts on my body using a razor blade, putting inside those cuts with African Herbs. He told my parents that somebody had witched me to death and the medicine could keep them away from me.
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9

Thank you so much for purchasing this book. The proceeds from this book goes to help all the women who have written in the book.
You will find out from their stories that these women are extremely poor. Many of them are widows and many children are orphans.
There is a lack of food and water for these people. Some still live in grass huts that cave in once the grass rots. Children drop out of school because they lack uniforms, socks, or shoes, and the school fees are not paid.
Some families have resorted to eating tree leaves and roots as they can’t buy any food, and they are having trouble growing food due to their lack of rain and resources.
As you read their stories, you will find that although they are dealing with unimaginable difficulties and heartbreak, they do what they can to stay positive and support their families.
