We go to the river every morning and get small fish and water sometimes we can’t even have 3 fish and some leaves from trees I don’t have money so I cant even go to school but I study by my self with books or text book from older people who could go to school and we repeat this three times a day for food. We also wash our clothes with water from the river. My weight is under weight. I feel hungry most of the time but I can’t do anything about it. I haven’t even been to the hospital for 4 years.
