[Content warning: multiple sudden deaths, including a stillbirth]​

I am traumatized! I have been living in fear and my heart is so full of anxiety for no particular reason! I don't even know where to begin. The past weeks have been a very challenging and traumatizing time for me and my family.

My family was so happy last month because it was my birth month and that of my son. We were all so excited and counting down each day, more so as it has been so long since I saw my family last, due to the COVID-19 lockdown and many other challenges in 2020. Then came very exciting news from my husband's elder brother: his wife gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on the 4th of August. The whole family was so happy, and my kids were super excited for their uncle.
