But now one of them via-via found back his mother living on the streets in Dakar. I'm sorry this has to sound so dramatic you'd think it is the thousandth Senegalese scam. Google me, I'm just an 59-year old Dutch woman. Anyway, if you mail me I can be more specific if you want in the gory detail how my client (now nationality Dutch) and his mom have been tortured in a Conakry prison in 2010, after which hè thought she was dead. After getting asylum in the Netherlands (2011) he built his (simple) life here. With his mother being found back in januari this year all the spectres of the past returned, especially since, in a way, she is dying in front of him for the second time:. when found, she was sick with a melanome on the foot and living on the streets. He found her a place to stay, which hè pays. Also, hè paid all his savings (4000 euro, I have proof) for an operation on her foot. But the foot won't heel and she seems to have a beginning cancer in the liver as well. in my opinion she will die in a year. No use operating on, no money either. The woman (sorry, complicated story again) is originally an analfabetic from SierraLeone. She speaks only pidgin-english and Pular, so she is very lonely in french-wolof speaking Dakar where she fled because of political danger in Conakry. She is Christian. Now I am trying to find english-speaking people who can visit her a bit. A priest would be best. Maybe you know people who know people who can help? If you do, I can ask the client for his mother's address.. maybe, like this we can both help a sick person in Dakar a bit. I hope my e-mailadress comes through the way I gave it.
