Hope restored

MARAE WONDIMU AYELE is a 41 years old who was a thriving merchant that was trading in the local markets in Shashamne about two years ago. Then she was happy because she was able to support her family by providing them with their needs. Just about that time she became ill with her kidneys. Upon seeking treatment she was informed that she must have a surgery to treat her. Unfortunately, during the surgery there was a complication and she became paralyzed permanently from the waist down. Her world collapsed and she lost hope totally and her meaning in life was eroded because now she is disabled.

Her only movement was supported by people. Salu restored her hope by providing her with a wheelchair and she is able to move around and once again planning to return to her former routine.
