When I get the next loan I hope to finish phase 2 and phase 3.
I plan to help the youths in the area in the way of motivating them to make something of their lives and have computer games as way of teaching and recreation. There is not much in the way of creation and role-models here.
I have an outstanding hospital bill of ZMK 4680 after paying
ZMK 6170. I had an emergence operation for acute appendicitis. They also did exploratory surgery. Am now recovering.
On the 14th October one of my daughters is getting married.
