"@Adaora Annie: I sewed for my late mum.. I bought the material, and gave it to a tailor, picked up the dress and travelled with it to the village and gave it to the mortuary attendant to wear her on her funeral morning. I am her only daughter so I did all that alone. I told the mortuary man to call me to see her body after dressing her up. 😩😩😩😩
"I saw my mum lying lifeless & helpless.. I was so strong that I couldn’t shed a tear. She was sick with stroke for 6 yrs.. she suffered with that illness I felt so sad that she had to rest finally. This video brought back those memories. Mummy keep resting in peace."
