“ I love you so much, Sahra. You will do wonderful things. Have courage and believe in yourself. ”
I could get through this. I would be strong because I was so close to achieving my dream of having my kids together.
~ Abeba Habtu
Eritrean people are strong and caring. And despite all that we had been through we were brimming with optimism. Our country was on the verge of huge change.
One might say my life has been tragic. Yet, as I sat in pain in the hospital I raised my tired hands toward the sky, palms facing in, fingers spread, and I gave thanks.
Whether I felt strong and courageous or not, I would now have to be for my baby boy.
