The 'cursed' women living in shame
In a rural central Ugandan village, 17-year-old Sulaina sits on the mud floor of the tiny home she shares with her mother and younger brother and sister.
She wants to help provide for her family. But she can't. She can barely leave her house.
Wherever she goes, a sickly smell follows her. That's because she is constantly leaking urine.

The rags she has stuffed in her underwear are drenched quickly, and then the urine starts running down her legs.
She has sores all over her thighs where the urine has burned her.
Sulaina has a condition called obstetric fistula. She developed it after giving birth to a baby girl last year.
