Shift. This fella is a doctor, but not like the other doctors youve just heard. He is cofounder of biosense technologies. And he is just a fountain of ideas.

Michigan socks. Most other times its more at eye level. He says i blink three times when i feel a sense of danger, and i strongly believe that it keeps me and my family safe. I remember this as if it was yesterday. I walked about a mile to fetch Drinking Water. At the time i was asked what i would be when i grew up. Without thinking, i said i would be a medical doctor. And i knew that i was a kid from a poor neighborhood, and that dream was real to me. My dad taught me to believe in myself, and i believed they could conquer any obstacle for my dream to make the world a better place. As i travelled 12 hours on a bus, within weeks it became real. My dream died and it became real. Headaches, fevers, but i went to class. At any cost i want today be in medical school. But i died. I was in a coma for two weeks.

There is a relationship between family plan between having many children and whether you can be able to provide for these children using the sticks. So i asked again, so what have we learned in the few weeks that we have been together . Kedra slowly puts up her hand and she says she wants to contribute. Okay, tell us. Then she says, you know, i have had 11 children in my life. I got married when i was 13 years old. And over time, i give birth to many children. And i continued giving birth because they were dieing. Seven of them seven i have put in the ground. I have buried seven of my children. I only have four children remaining. And its because i didnt know about Family Planning. Nobody told me about it.

But in the span of like 30 minutes, anna began having difficulty in breathing. We did everything we could to save her. But all our efforts were in with vein. I remember looking at anna lying in a pool of blood and i felt very from us not being able to save her. She was only 26 years old. Even though i didnt know her, i knew she must have had a whole life ahead of her. How could she have just died like that . So later on, i had the courage and go out of the labor room to meet her husband.
