“I Thought My Life Was Completely Falling Apart After the People I Loved and Trusted Betrayed Me During My Most Difficult Days, but That Pain Unexpectedly Led Me to a Better and Happier Future,” Mum of 16 Children Narrates

 

For years, Miriam Atieno believed family was the one place she could always run to whenever life became unbearable. 

As a mother of 16 children, she spent most of her life sacrificing everything to make sure her family stayed together, even when hardship knocked at her door.

Speaking emotionally during an interview, Miriam revealed that life became difficult after her husband fell sick and later passed away, leaving her with the heavy responsibility of raising their children alone. 

With little income and increasing responsibilities, she turned to close relatives and longtime friends, hoping they would stand with her through the difficult season. Instead, she says, many turned their backs on her, mocked her struggles, and even avoided her calls.

It was during this painful period that Miriam says she nearly gave up on life, feeling emotionally exhausted and spiritually drained.GET FULL STORY.
