the university where she developed her
writing skills and began to write chil
dren,s books. She earned a lot from her
books and soon made a name for herself.

Abena took that moment to thank
Mr Dadzie for all that he had done for her
and promised not to disappoint him after
receivng treatment abroad. Luckily, her
disability improved and it became less 

Mr Dadzie sent her to a good sec
ondary school it was while she was
there that she met a lady who became
very fond of her. Like Mr Dadzie, the first
time the woman set eyes on Abena she
became interested in her, and after get
ting to know that she was academically
good and was of good behaviour, she
offered to take her abroad for treament
Abena therefore, introduced her new
fiend to Mr Dadzie who readily agreed
to the lady,s recouest.

Mr Dadzie took her to house , pro

One day , as Abena was reurning from
the riverside after fetching water, she fell
down, broke her pot and sustained some
injuries .She could not even stand on her
feet. She fell so sorry for herself and began
to weep 

As a disabled person, it was not easy
for her to run errands for people for
money, but she struggled to do so make
ends meet. She believed that, if she had
someone to take care of her she would not
be doing such diffiuclt tasks. She put on
tattered clothes because there was nobody
to buy new ones for her . Through all her
difficulties. Abena believed that her situ
ation would improve some day . She did
not allow her  disability to kill her God
given talents. 

With the rejection by her mother,s
family, Abena had nobody else to depand
on for food Most of the time she fed on
leftover food from other people,s homes
