This is the kind of stuff that can give a father ulcers. If I had known what you were getting into I probably would have tied you up or had you committed. In retrospect, I can brag about my daughter and the brilliant work that she does. ❤️

How do you keep your wits about you in such scenarios? And over 70% unemployment!

Good question. I’ll write about that. If you want to read about how Congo got to this awful point, I recommend reading “Leopold’s Ghost.”

Thank you so much, will get the book. We have dear family friends from DCR who now live in Louisiana. Their entire extended family, who they fully financially support, is still in Congo. The stories they have told.

Hope you are healing well.
