Joseph, a 13-year-old boy in grade four, currently lives with his mother while his father works in a different district. His mother, a peasant farmer, contributes to the family's welfare but heavily relies on her husband's income, which is often delayed. The family's financial struggles have made it difficult for Joseph to access proper medical treatment for his recurring nosebleeds and have also created challenges in covering school fees. Despite these hardships, Joseph remains committed to his education.
