Baby Sheena
a bright and intelligent young girl
Her story begins with challenges. Her mother, a young orphan, was abandoned by the father of her child. Seeking refuge with her uncle, Sheena’s mother faced maltreatment and malnourishment, leading to a difficult pregnancy and cesarean section. Baby Sheena was born fragile and sickly.
Daughter and Mother
Fortunately, Sheena’s mother befriended my daughter at school, and her story was shared with me. We welcomed both Sheena and her mother into our home, providing care and support.
Now 3 Years old
With love and treatment, Sheena has flourished. Now three years old, she excels academically, coming first in her class, and showcases her creativity through singing.
Alain WilaNyuy
“She handed the baby to me and disappeared without returning.”
My journey with Alain WilaNyuy began unexpectedly. One day, while traveling to Nso in the Northwest Region, I encountered a woman carrying a frail, dark-skinned baby boy. The baby was crying incessantly, and when I inquired about his condition, the mother explained that he had been pale and anemic since birth. As I held the baby for a moment, the mother asked the driver to stop, claiming she needed to use the restroom. She handed the baby to me and disappeared without returning.
After waiting for about 15 minutes, we searched for her, but she was nowhere to be found. I reported the incident to the nearest gendarmerie and decided to adopt the child. Alain’s early health struggles were daunting, and there were times I feared for his well-being. However, with God’s grace, he thrived. Today, Alain is a grown, healthy, intelligent, and hardworking young man.
Bianca Ngahkanyuy’s
Bianca Ngahkanyuy’s story is one of resilience. Her name, meaning “what is difficult for God,” is ironic, as nothing is impossible for GOD. I rescued Bianca and her brother Emmanuel from their mother, who struggled with mental health issues. Despite her own challenges, Bianca’s mother had been pregnant twice, allegedly due to traumatic experiences.
The first encounter
When I first encountered the children, Bianca was around 5 years old and showed signs of mental health struggles, while Emmanuel was just a baby. Their mother had a habit of picking cola nuts, often at night, and faced exploitation. The children’s health was also compromised, with damage to their toes, legs, and fingers due to jiggers.
Be Strong despite the difficulties
I provided medical care, gradually removing the jiggers and treating their wounds. Although Bianca’s mental health challenges persist, she has a caring side, often comforting crying babies and enjoying playtime with children. While she faced difficulties in vocational school, her gentle nature shines through in her interactions with others.
