Living with his paternal grandmother is the life that Dison knew because that is all that life offered him. He started living with her when he was eight months old after his mother`s death. Besides farming, his paternal grandmother does tailoring to help her meet the family needs. However, given the rural setting, many people bring their clothes for mending and do not pay leaving her with many of the clothes she mends and those who pay, give in very little to help her support the family sufficiently. When the harvest is good, she has some assurance to provide for the family for some months but when the harvest is poor, then the family suffers most months of the year. The father who would help is incapacitated after getting a moto accident which limited his ability to provide for his son. Dison could help his grandmother to collect water and wash plates while at home and during his free time, he plays football with his friends.
At Berakhah childcare, he prays with the older children and is learning how to dance as he keeps watching his friends practicing. Life has greatly changed for the best. He is in Primary three and his performance is average. Your sponsorship and prayers for Dison will enable him to face the future with hope and love physically, mentally and spiritually as he dreams of becoming a doctor. Thank you. God bless you!
