As i was looking through my photo album to refreshen my memories last week.My eyes landed and actually got stack on this picture.She is apretty nice looking lady in her 20s,medium size,chocalate colur skin,watermelon smile that easly tame a Revland father if he`s not so careful,wide face fairly dottted with those big blue bold eyes which one could see that they are full of love and compassion whenever she stricked a blink.
Really, she is the one, BIRUNGI.Sister Birungi. mY gaze at her photo mysteriusly turned my eyes to put on what i rarely put on and that is the bedroom look.
This so set my mind to a broader imagination of her presence just close at me preferably infront of me for no other reason but just to have a look at her.If an angel was to fall in love with Birungi he would look at her like me.Ilater on realised that her photo i was looking at was gaining life,that i nearly uttered `my love'Oh! so sudden my conscience maintained it that a mare photo can`t listen or see what i was on.
Drawing back my mind to what had happened days before,this belle had narrowly escaped death.She had what the doctors termed as ``An innevitable abortion'',which with the little biology i tapped, could not understand.
The government is tirelessly paintingblack the act of abortionbut how comes the innevitable abortion? what kind of innevitability is this?
wouldn`t the stubborn Nakattuddes continue aborting under the umbrella of innevitable abortion.
Our beloved,democratically elected ``Taata Muho...''has recently maintained it kindly (almost on his knees)that the rate at which Ugandans are procreating has not yet satisfiied him.(Breaking news from Kyankwanzi).Ha ha!Do not ask me the number of off springs he has so far produced.
Their knowledge however reveals that certain psycho social and physiological problems play an important role in seeing innevitabl abortion on track.
Thse include domestic violence where men are fond of beating their women like desert camels,that gives no peace even to the foetus.
Poverty that to most Ugandan women especially in the villages makes them shun going for maternity treatment putting all the stakeholders at agreat risk.Drugs taken by the expectant mothers even in a simple feeling of uneasiness may instead turn out to be toxic to both the carrier and the carried.
MALARIA.This for sister Birungi`s case was the outstanding reason.According to the doctors,the womb was too hot for the baby to servive.spare me your other questions,for the doctors canbe suitable attendants to them,ok?
Severe bleeding,trauma,pain,were all she went through,worsened bythe nurses` great care ,i think you know Mulago,Uganad`s National Refferal Hospital.What a ward she was in,5B,that she was always the first recipient of the news that `some body has died giving birth`!
By the mere look into her eye you could easly see that she went through a tunnel.Thanks be to God that she is still alive.And to you men,when your ladies ask you for babies,please it isn`t just a matter of balooning them,but, it goes beyond that,stop being selfish.think about the care,comfort,encouragement,medication,consolation,all bound in the name of LOVE.May pregnancies not separate love but rather spice it up.GOD BLESS YOU ALL.Chiao.
