Posted by Harry Gantuah <selassie8@yahoo.com> on Tue, 23 Oct 2007, in response to looking for parents/family?, posted by debby wilson on Sat, 05 Jun 2004

i am harry Gantuah from liberia but presently in Ghana due to the war which occurred in my home since 1990 till 2007,unfortunately for my little brother and i,we lost our parents to the war.

I am 17 yrs now and my brother is 7 yrs.We manage to enter into Ghana when we joined a group of people who were also heading for Ghana.When we came here we came as refugees so we were treated as one,we were provided tents,food and cloth for the cold until time came when un stopped rationing food and others,There and then my time had reached to grow up,Well for the sake of my brother and i,i had to get on my feet,i started going round looking for little jobs to do like washing peoples clothes and washing their dishes and running errands also,this was how i managed to keep food on the table for dew and i and to keep us alive,i know its my duty but it was just sudden and mistimed.

Education now became a major factor,our number 1 priority as i should put it,but looking at my kid of jobs and school it seemed impossible for me so i had to see dew only to school.A moth later a scholarship opportunity came and i was selected from amongst those who applied and i started school for free no fees for a year but unfortunately the year did not end and the sponsors had to leave so i was back to my old drawing board.Things were back to the way they use to be until i fell very sick and dew had to drop cos no one would help us,things bacame more frustrating for me thinking on how i was going to provide now that i was sick,the next morning i woke up and did not see dew beside me,later he came with some porridge for me, and i asked him where he got it ,he told me a lady gave it to him not knowing he went out running errands for some people,knowing this i wept and wept until i could cry no more,we were like this for a week until i recovered.well since i recovered things have not been the same,i haven't had that strength i use to have in working but all the same i still manage to find food for us.I decided to use the internet looking for friends and someone we could call family,we are still .My hobbies are making friends and singing its my passion,i hope my talent in music will come out one day when i have the support.This is almost all about me,hope this message reaches u in good faith,byeeeeeeee friend.HARRY&DEW,pls u can contact me at selassie8@yahoo.com
