She is a person with few financial resources and sometimes survives on community aid. She has been suffering for 25 years of severe headaches and muscle problems with her back and neck.

The premature loss of her teeth has caused a severe loss of bone and other bony deformities. Her rehabilitation despite complexities and multiple physiotherapies is now a reality.
