In the heart of her village (Kitebe, Mukono district), surrounded by rolling Green Fields, stands her crumbling mud-and-grass-thatched house. This home though humble and leaky, shelters her and her two months old baby, Frank, from the harsh elements but it’s a fragile sanctuary, one that barely protects her and her son from the rains or the cold nights
Patience became a mother far too soon, still a child herself. Her journey into motherhood was not celebrated but scorned. Cast aside from her family, she was labeled a curse for becoming pregnant while still living under their roof. But in the face of rejection, Patience’s spirit has remained unbroken. She has taken on the role of the mother, provider, and protector for the little Frank, with a strength and courage that defies her young age
Everyday is a battle for survival. Her body still aches from the wounds of childbirth, yet she forces herself to dig under the scorching sun, trying to scrape together enough to feed her baby. When she isn’t tending to Frank or laboring in the fields, Patience has been laying bricks, hoping to sell them to earn enough to buy a plot of land-a dream of stability for her and her child
But her reality is dire, the rain seeps through the roof, threatening Frank’s fragile health, there are no luxuries here, only survival. The meals are sparse and medical care is out of reach. Yet through all this, Patience holds onto hope. She dreams of giving Frank a life beyond these struggles-a chance to grow up healthy, loved, and with opportunities she never had
