Mzee [old man]

We actually went to visit this man's grandson...the child of his diseased son. At the age of 23 and having been made an orphan at the age of 16, the grandson is looking after the his grandfather, grandmother and two siblings. The grandson is going to school part time in order to get a degree in toursim and is working part time to get a bit of cash to meet some of the other needs of his large family. The burden on this young man is enormous. But he is tackling it head on with humour and dedication and I have no doubt that he will succeed...but it is not easy.

The connection is poor. The work is inspiring. The concentration should be on other things...let me sign off.
