Reactions as lady shares her family's story

@Anastasia said:

"Some of you didn’t even listen to the video. She clearly mentioned the causes. Cerebral palsy doesn’t happen during pregnancy, rather after pregnancy, and she clearly mentioned it. For hers, it’s prolonged labour, jaundice and meningitis respectively."

@Tessyama said:

"My sister, you will regret your sacrifice. As someone who has sacrificed so much for family, I’m telling you, it’s not worth it. Face your life, don’t let anyone manipulate you into losing yourself."
