family of the man, (who is 20 years old) the man
himself had ran away. The 12 year-old girl is in
Primary 3.The scan was done and a doctor told us
that she is about 7 months pregnant. He thinks there
could be a problem with the legs of the child, but he
wasn't sure.
We took the little girl to Amecet, gave her food and
one of the staff has spend some time
with her this afternoon. To see if she knows what's
going on.
She is really a child and is even happy that she gets a
baby. It will be a big problem, she is too small for a
natural birth, it probably should be a caesarian. She
played Memory with the other children and I could
cry, to see her sitting there with that big belly, this
will be really a child with a child. And while she
should be able to play and have fun, she is getting a
baby.
Some things I just can not understand, they make me
angry! Amecet n'ainapakin (Shelter of Peace) is a
ministry of Youth With A Mission (YWAM)in
Soroti, Uganda. We are reaching out to HIV infected
and affected children. We also are caring for new
born
babies, who lost their mother after the delivery. The
third group of children we help, are children who
need a safe place, they mostly come via the police.
