now you see what happened to this 76 years old woman as a child affected the rest of her life..just a little nick and prick it's murder!!!!! most of women suffer and hide in shame:( Every year, about 1000 women develop fistula, a condition in which one loses control of their bowels in this country according to statistics from AMREF . It is one condition that takes away the dignity of a woman and most victims are usually stigmatized and considered social outcasts. The good news though is that it is repairable. Sylvia Chebet today met a 76 year old grandmother who has lived with the condition more than half her life.
