"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is a chest complication that I have had since 2012. This health condition has taken a toll on both my physical appearance and finances. It has been a challenge because I have to attend to medication regularly during the rainy seasons, which requires money. "

"Two years ago I was attacked by robbers on my way home. One of them hit me on the chest with a blunt object. I was admitted to hospital for a week and discharged. This was followed by a series of check up trips to hospital for further medication. My family was affected the most because I am the sole breadwinner. This is the biggest hardship I have faced in my life. "
