Sharon
enrolled.
"In the year 2016, I lost my husband. As a young family, with our elderly son being 2 years old, I thought it was the end of our lives. I was extremely worried on how to bring up my kids as the only parent with limited skills and from a very humble background. But it is through God's mercies that I have significantly adjusted and coped with the situation. However, I feel that we could be leading better standards of living if my husband was still alive."
