The children were very young, and I was helpless. We didn't see a penny of his earnings, because the court cases started after he died. They went on for 15 years, but we eventually won. The judge took witness statements from people in our village. They testified that I was his wife. After he passed, there were a lot of hardships. I would earn money, and also manage the family. Our youngest son couldn't take his father's passing, and he died after being run over by a car. It was a very difficult time. But I made sure my daughters got an education."
