Real life stories of three women who suffered from obstetric fistula, but regained their health, dignity and hope.
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.
