"The biggest hardship that I have faced in life is raising my son Brian after giving birth to him prematurely. The situation made him vulnerable in that I ended up visiting hospital frequently. At 5 months, he was diagnosed with meningitis thus spending more than a month in hospital. It was the lowest moment for me and my family. We spent all our savings on his medication."

"The biggest hardship I have ever faced in life was in 2011 when my newly built house burnt down,together with all my assets.This really devastated me as we had no money to build a new house and buy the basic household requirements. It was a tough time as we entirely depended on well wishers for food, clothing and shelter."

"The biggest hardship am currently facing is not being able to provide for myself as before due to old age. I totally depend on my children who mostly forget about me or send me very little money that is not enough to sustain me."

"The biggest hardship I faced was in early 2017 when I developed a strange disease that for a long time could not be managed or treated. This stressed me and my family as we spent a lot of money,yet could not find the cure to my sickness. I am glad that after a long struggle, I'm now doing well."
