Naomi Ramdehol, a domestic violence survivor, of the Parika Sea Dam, East Bank Essequibo, who is facing a tough life financially, recently lost her son to a brain tumour, so celebrating Christmas is the last thing on her mind.
One-year-old Kevon, was diagnosed in June this year and died in October. She is still mourning his passing and is not in the holiday spirits. Even so, she never really afforded to celebrate too much.
The single mother moved to the sea dam 20 years ago and does not have access to electricity, proper road and potable water. She suffers constant flooding from the spring tide and dreams of relocating to a more comfortable area.
