Dear Makena, I am really sorry for everything you had to go through. I am your friend from home and I feel so bad that I looked at you those days and I never understood you. I really would have wanted to know more about you but you were older and I thought.. maybe it was just the age difference.. You never really made friends as much with people even in church. You led us through the youth services.. But now that I know this, everything adds up. Everything. I am so sorry. I wish I knew better I would have visited you..let you sleep at our home even. Just know that our home is your home if you ever feel the need to bring back the good beautiful memories. You are a strong woman Christine. You are a very strong woman. You deserve nothing but all the happiness you ever missed out on. The love.. Everything. You deserve it all Makesh.

Thank you Christine, Thank you for sharing to some of us it's still hard to come out and share. I totally relate to your story. My dad was diagnosed wit HIV back in 2000 though he was not violent but promiscuous and passed on a year later. I was in class 4 when he passed on and I really didn't understand what was happening. In shags at school other people could mock me and laugh at me and I even hated going to school. Mum could also not face me and tell me that she was also sick though she could go for monthly clinics.A year later I found a document in mum's handbag which had her Hiv status written on. And every day I was scared that I will lose her. I was afraid that when I go to school she will be dead by the time I came back. That made me to cherish every moment with her and remind her to take her meds and to eat a balanced diet even though it was not always available. But thank God because she is a strong woman and He Has kept her so far. fast forward years later and she is still alive and healthy and she even has held my son her grandchild and I can't wait to see what God has still in store for her bcoz He is not yet done with her.

Thank you for being a gentle host. You allowed her to tell her story, without sensationalizing it or adding on expressions of shock as other hosts have done. You quietly and gently guided her through, stopping non intrusively when she needed a break & encouraging her to go deeper in the story. Thank you for bringing on such a powerful story of strength and forgiveness.

[@desmondmainye631]

Sheila Ngumi-Mbugua I agree

[@wanjangigi5489]

My parents divorced five years ago . This got me into depression since I kept it to myself ... Never thought about going through counselling since I was still young and didn't know much about life until mid last year when I broke down and finally went through counselling for three months.... I poured out everything that was weighing me down and the healing process commenced. Today I have a support group which I started early this year in Multimedia University of Kenya ... I reach out to students from broken homes and those who have been through abusive relationships. I encourage everyone going through depression to speak up... Don't die in silence

[@keritukeega9141]

Thank you Christine for sharing your story. It so mirrors my own. My dad was a raving alcoholic who beat up my mum from the earliest I could remember. My childhood was a nightmarish one, because any time my father came our mum would definitely take a hit and I was afraid that one day he would kill her. My dad died when I was nine, and on his death certificate the cause of death was listed as HIV. That is when I definitely new that mummy had it as well. So here's the ting, I had spent the past years of my life telling my mother to leave, that we would be alright, that she needs to get away from this monster, but then here he is, dead, and having left mother with a monstrous illness. It took another 5 years for my mother to get on medication, I think she was in denial. Even then, she would skip her meds especially each time she attended these apolistic churches whose pastors would tell her to have faith and she would be healed. So she basically spent her whole life thereafter in hospital. When I was in highschool, I was in a boarding school,and my constant prayer every single night was that he keeps my mum alive and happy. Thank God because she lived for 16 years after my father passed on. On the day that we buried her, neighbours passing by cruelly called our home 'Mucii wa mukingo' meaning 'the home where AIDS reigns'. I wondered if that is what my mums life entailed, constantly hearing endless, cruel gossip about your condition, which your own husband brought to her. Anyway, I have still not forgiven my dad. He is long dead and here I am, very angry at him. May mum's soul rest in peace.

[@geraldmalik6942]

When we were kids, we all admired this family. They looked beautiful. It breaks my heart to hear what the family has gone through. This story reaffirms that we need to do better, we need to be better. I have quickly realised that the world doesn’t want to be fixed, and more so by us. The world asks of us to fix ourselves, to check ourselves and our intentions because most of us reek of toxicity, greed and unkindness and we are drowning this world. So maybe this world is just fine...we are the ones bleeding it out.

Hi Makena this so touching i grew up in an abuse marriage and my mum always encouraged us to pray always love our dad ..it was traumatizing us we would even hide blackest out so that we can have a place to sleep when chased out, we would hide sharp objects to prevent our mum being hurt. Being beaten with thermos on my head there was a time was caned using the stima cable but i remember there is a day i gave out ripe bananas to some casuals who at home and when they saw my dad they hid the pills but they were found i was canned and forced to sleep on cooffe and that was the turning point for my mum. am so proud of what my mum did

That is me I played a role of a mother when I was supposed to be a child. Am in the process of forgiving my parents and trying to work out my relationship with them.

[@hannahw4769]

I work with victim of domestic violence, and the mother came back in this case because of her children. He knew that if got the children this would make the mother come back to him and he used this. Fortunately, where I work we have support and resources to enable victims of domestic violence to leave safely and we work with all professionals working with the children. In this case, the schools would not have allowed him to pick the children as they were made aware of what has been happening. Domestic violence impacts on the children emotionally, psychologically, socially and they can be victims themselves of violence. It’s important that the non abusing parent try not to expose her children to violence. I have seen how living with domestic violence affect children in a negative way.

So strong and courageous, if only I could have even a quarter of that... I have somehow grown in a similar environment. My mum went through emotional and psychological abuse and whenever my dad realised how protective and loving I was to my mum, he could say nasty stuff about her. My mum left home a couple of times and I thank God she did, despite the fact that my brother and I got separated. I have to say children suffer a lot in abusive marriages and unfortunately all that only projects itself years later, at the least expected season of your life. So for the sake of your children's happiness and yours as well, walk out of an abusive relationship/marriage. Let children have a voice because they see and harbour a lot. They only want to see their parents happy. Thank you so much Makena for sharing your story. May you reach as many people because there are so many suffering inside due to family backgrounds.

I rem how people used to judge me, rejecting me, telling me am weird. Only that they didn't see the tears behind a bubbly smile. I have gone through serious depression twice last year, then when I was at my final breaking point, God brought people who saved my life n walked me through the journey. I can now say that I am free, I have forgiven, I have let go and I am happy. I can't imagine I was chained for the last 22years into my past... I am really happy now... I am free. Yes at times I break down, but I can't compare my today n yesterday. God, thank you for helping me overcome it. How I pray that my small bro will be able to overcome it some day, and that my mum will find happiness n peace some day.... To fellow victims, please know that it is OK not to be okay, it is OK to breakdown, but you have to move on n let go Coz the world will not understand why you do things the way u do them. So, some day you will be okay, IF YOU ARE WILLING N READY TO LET GO. God loves you. 😘😘😘
