Transcript: A Hard and Lonely Life

FLORA: Sometimes I walk 12 miles and think, why do I torture myself like this? When I think about the life here and where I come from in Arusha, I ask myself why did I come here to these problems? Each year in June, Loshero goes to Dar es Salaam to work in a hunting camp for four months. I stay here and that is when there are problems. Sometimes the children are sick...sometimes there is no food. I am alone. I have no relatives here. It's a long time to cope on my own.

NARRATOR: It's hard for Flora to keep from dwelling on the past. This is how she was before she met Loshero. Sometimes Flora thinks she might have lost far more than she's gained.
