But one thing was clear to me though.  Mother was trying to keep me out of it all so as to protect me. from the pain and heartbreak all of  it may cause me. 

And most importantly, to stop me from developing hatred for my grandparents in the process. 

So after that days fight with grandma. 
Mother decided not to give up.

Read " Blood And Water " by the same author ( Nnenna books )

. So she would keep on fighting till she  wins.

She started another treatment of herbs, and uncountable visits to medicine homes to seek for solutions to the predicaments she was facing.
 
 So Is true as the saying goes that  "it's  only he that wears the shoes that knows where it pains" . That was how my poor mother felt she was in pain!. (Crys) and where is father to comfort her? No where to be found .

Always out when the enemy's attached. 
    So mother sort solutions almost alone on how to save her home and marriage from falling apart. 

So many things were done to her. And medicine to be used too.

But all seemed not to be working on her

. At list I can see all of it myself.  No one needed tell me about it.

I watched my mother go through miscarriages upon miscarriage, and all I could do was watch and feel sorry for my poor mother. Oh mother! If only her mother was still alive. Maybe she would have done something to help. I thought to myself. 

It got to a point, I started fearing for her life and that was when Dad knew all was not well.
 Because she was now the shadows of her old self. All skinny and  thin.

That even the bones on her body frame needed no x-ray to be seen or counted.

One can even mistake her for having  Aids or predict that she won't live to seeing the next day. By just looking at her present state. 
 
But mother, a fighter won't give up trying and each time the miscarriage occurs. All mother says to me is "He is gone again Ada".
