I was born the first in a family of three. we were raised up by a single parent that my mother. In my background boys pass circumcision at an age of below 10yrs.

At an age of 8yrs its when my turn came which changed my life completely. In my mother's room we used to all sleep on one bedding. There was this old lady who used to come to me at night while we were sleep. It started when i passed my circumcision.At that age i took it normal not knowing that it was made to take effect in my next life.

The first night i saw an old person come to me In a kind of a dream. The lady kept on starring at me and finally said called me by my name. She told me i should go near her and we shake our hands. It was so unfortunately that my mother saw me getting out of the bed at the middle of the night and controlled me from going anywhere.

The next the was the same story and my mother controlled it. It happened to me for about four times. I used to normalize it because even when I told my grandparents they did nothing about it. The forth and the final day came, i saw my mother seated at the center of old women. I could even know by there name because i used to see then daily.

This time i was ready to shake her hand which i did comfortably since my mother couldn't do any thing. All this instinct happened in a kind of a dream. My worsed chapters of life were opened that same night and my life took another controller.

On one time my grandfather was cleaning his drawer which contained some important documents. He picked some photographs and started showing us. To my surprise i saw a photo of an old woman who used to visit at night. He told me that's his mother and died before i was born. Amazed but she knows my by my Names.

I started having so many complications of the body but i was just 8years of age.

Out of countless complains, my mother called to inspect what was wrong with me. Her first question did you fall any where. My hand this time couldn't even fit on a t-shirt. In africa especially my country Kenya if you have any pain in your body there some pain relieve creams so my mother applied some on my hand since it was at night and she was jobless so getting a cash was just a problem.

Then next day was worse as i was even unable to attend the school considering there was an end of the year exams that week. On the evening it when i was talken to a near by dispensary for check up. The doctor said he is familiar to the same and i will end the suffering. I took some injections and pills to take them as painkillers. I was appointed for visit the next day.
