Aids In Africa

Emily Kwamboka Mogeni is a 33 year
old Kenyan American who lives in
Eagan Minnesota with her husband
Erick and their two young sons Damien and
Dylan. She developed her writing interest as
early as 5 years old. She went to Kenyas top
girls school, The Kenya High School where
she excelled in English and Literature. She
later moved to the United States to study
Computer Science at the State University
of New York. She is currently a student at
the Minnesota School of Business.
Her father, who was her great inspiration died in March 2003 due
to throat cancer. Three months later her mother died. This is what
gave her the inspiration to write this book and share the story of
what many young orphans in Kenya are undergoing.
Her book is an insight to the rest of the world about what is happening
deep down in the roots of an African village. There are millions of
children who will never live to enjoy what the world has to offer due
to their HIV status. These children most of whom are very bright
and smart suffer quietly while living with their aging grandparents in
the poverty stricken villages. Most of them lost their parents soon
after birth or before their fifth birthday.
This book is a great inspiration to many of these children. All they
need is a roof on top of their heads, a warm meal and proper
medical care.
