My name is Asiimwe Isaac, I come from a rift valley widely known as Butuku, in Ntoroko district, Uganda. My home village is called Kasongora and my parish is makondo which neighbors the beautiful undulating Rwenzori Mountains and also located some kilometers away from the great Lake Albert. Being a first born, I was chanced to study up to university heading a bracket of six beautiful siblings with whom I share both parents and some a parent. This along being born out of a peasant family gave me the insight to always embrace responsibility. Although I worked tirelessly hard to change my wits on life and of those around me, I was introduced expectantly to unDEfeated in 2019 by Desange Kuenihira who doubles as my very good friend and cousin sister. I took on her creativity with a lot of enthusiasm and love since I have always admired to influence humanity. What I want is to meet my inner thoughts, seize all the desired goals that lie buried there, then I can walk out of the manufactory, I know a little tired but strong enough to know that I restored it. However, my fondness comes from the melancholy taking place in my mother’s life. My mother is a psychopath who lost touch with family, friends and husband (my father) a couple of years today. The sad confession is that she’s currently being taken care of by outlanders besides being born of an extended highly spoken family. It is a pity. Seeing my mother’s experience has not killed my energy to work hard but has rather cultivated in me the courage to face life’s challenges, embrace medicine, science and psychology. I am grateful to my father for supporting me throughout and I should proudly say I know some medicine and science. I will therefore use my voice and skills through unDEfeated to uplift the social, economic and health standards of all helpless mothers across the globe. I’m once more delighted to share this amazing platform of unDEfeated’s kind with hopefully young, rejuvenated and enthusiastic human beings.
