[Music] [Music] Thank you, thank you. [Music] Come on, I've been happening. Okay, okay. [Music] You can even take overnight. Sometimes a day can pass or two. Okay. Foreign [Music] Grace, so I went home to catch up some rest. Around 23 hours, I had a knock at my door. Two women were knocking. They said they brought a woman in labor. So I thought maybe it was a guess, not until they explained: no, it's just another woman who's come for labor. Yeah. [Music] After examining, that's when I saw that this is a serious case. The fetal heart was less than 100, the baby was in distress, so I had to call the ambulance. Though due to network failure, the lines wouldn't go through. The head was delivered, and they showed us, couldn't rotate. When the baby came out, it wouldn't cry. When the baby aspirated in Korean, there was no suction machine. There was only a penguin sucker, which wouldn't go deep and remove those secretions. I had to ambu-bag the baby, but without good effect, the baby died. [Music] [Applause] Thank you, 1984. [Music] Foreign [Music] Foreign [Music] I'm 55 years old now. I'm a farmer. I normally grow maize, groundnuts, green beans, and some tomatoes. Now I'm married to Grace Chibilica, and I've stayed with my wife for now 16 years. I have four children with her; the fifth is not yet born. Yes, Papa. Foreign [Music] Oh, my God! To my first wife, I've got five children. They were supposed to be eight, but the three died during their ages. [Music] The first-born daughter was Memory. She had malaria; she died at the age of four years. When I lost my second-born, I almost lost my life because it drained me a lot. Friends came to advise me: "To those other friends that also lost their children, why should you lose your life just because of this? What has happened to you?" Then the third one, immediately she was delivered, she only stayed maybe one hour, 30 minutes, then the infant died. To experience death at that age, you see your friend playing with his baby. I only thought, "Why always on me? Well, my friends are keeping their children." But I never took up my life. I don't lose my faith, 'cause I know that death is there. What I only did was to get more advice on how to keep myself, my children, and that's what I'm still doing now. [Music] Um, foreign [Music] Foreign ambulance. So please, I beg, he wants every TV series. [Music] Attended, examine. Yeah. Foreign [Music] Baby, we need a suction machine. We need catheters to empty the woman's bladder when they are in labor. We need a sterilization machine, but for here, Katoba, we do not have those instruments. This building, it has solar lighting. So in the rain seasons, we have to use our phones for lighting. We learn to improvise because when there are no things, at least you try to think instead of letting a woman suffer. This clinic is just for normal deliveries and a complicated delivery, which has just to be repaired. If the nurse notices that something has gone wrong, then the nurse will call the hospital for an ambulance to go and pick the patient. Okay, let me just call the ambulance; then where can we go? [Music] Right now, we're responding to a call; she's about 10 kilometers away from the main hospital. They are calling us. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Thank you. And they have to come to a hospital where there are facilities for a theater. And so we then intervene by doing a cesarean section. [Music] So we have a big challenge because, you know, we have 39 facilities being serviced by one ambulance, a population of close to 200,000 people. And these facilities are not like concentrated in one place. To go into Katova, which is one of our furthest facilities, it takes about 1 hour, 30 minutes. We have this huge challenge. The nurse calls for an ambulance in facility X, which is 50 kilometers away, says, "This woman is bleeding." And then we have another nurse calling from another facility, says, "I have another one who has failed to deliver." So now we are left with a dilemma because you have to decide where do you go to pick the patient. Thank you. [Music] [Music] Foreign. Thank you, thank you. [Music] Foreign [Music] The blues. Foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] Foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Foreign [Music] Foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] Anyway. Foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Laughter] Uncle. [Music] Foreign [Music] 3.5 kg. Um, I think if I have a daughter who has completed school, maybe she goes up to college, she might become a president, she might become a minister, she might become a doctor. [Music] Teacher. Mysteries, do you plan to have more kids after this one? No, I'm not planning. I think this will be the last kid. Why do you think this is the last one? Are there enough that I have us at now? [Laughter] [Music] Yes, please. Foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] Months, she is at the nursery school. [Music] [Music] Foreign [Music]
