Life is as we make it. It is a moving story and narration and i'm glad it worked out well for him.But i couldn't help picture how many unfortunate kids has lost much of their dreams because of this 'meningitis' illness that could be prevented with only a sip of vaccine.Still much to be done in a country like Ethiopia regarding this.

A very descriptive narration of an unfortunate story shared by many children in sub-Saharan Africa mainly living along Africa's meningitis belt - Thank you Moti for sharing this suffering of patients with meningitis and related complications to the rest of the world. Infectious diseases remain the commonest cause of mortality and morbidity in developing nations.
