Orphaned : One Woman's Mission to Save Africa's AIDS Children Paperback / softback
by Melissa Fay Greene
Paperback / softback
Description
In a tin-walled compound outside Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, a middle-class woman named Haregewoin Teferra suffers terrible personal losses.
In grief, she turns to the church, and is presented with two orphans and asked to house them.
Haregewoin agrees. Once she opens her gate, she never manages to close it again.
Here is a woman who does not run away from HIV-positive and AIDS-orphaned children, brought to her on foot, by bus or by donkey cart.
There are over a million AIDS orphans in Ethiopia; "There Is No Me Without You" tells a few of their remarkable stories through the eyes of a woman whose own life has been altered by them.
