"My story started with son in Law, who was the owner of the medicine store in Freeman Reserved. He treated my neighbor who was very ill and later declared as EVD positive. After the death of my neighbor, my son in-Law began very ill and I started to take care of him in the house without protective gear. He was sick for two weeks and later died en-route to C.H. Rennie Hospital. One week later, my daughter, mother in Law, and father in –Law got ill and they were taken to JFK Hospital, where three of them died. I was also taken to Island Hospital on the 30th of September 2014 and was tested Ebola positive. I was discharged on October 14; 2014. While in the Hospital, my entire house was looted by thieves. They took away the doors and windows from my newly constructed house including our mattresses and clothes. I left my 9 year olds daughter in the hospital and she was discharged on November 3, 2014. She was discharged and turned over to the Ministry of Health. The Ministry referred her to Harbel children care center where she spend months before tracing her family. She was reunified in early February 2015. She has not received her certificate yet. My family and I are presently living in a rented house."
