Janet Babisewano has been struggling
ever since her husband died in 1995.
She shares her home with her daughter and her two granddaughters.
The father of her first grandchild left when he found out of the pregnancy. The father of her second grandchild
used to work as a manager but has since lost his job.
They try to make a living by selling
fruit to the roadside retailers. The
also own three pigs and three goats which they hope to fatten up and then sell to
raise the school fees ($US23.00) for the two young children.
The situation is not helped by Janet’s
heart condition, which costs her $US3.27 a month.
She hopes that one day she will
be able to open a fruit shop in Kampala.
She also hopes that people will
buy her jewelry so that she can become a proud Ugandan once again.
