Malakal, South Sudan – “I died inside when they were not with me, now I’ve come back to life,” says Khamisa Adam before placing a new round of kisses on her granddaughter’s chubby baby cheeks. Not only is her family whole again, it also has a new member.
Kahmisa was out looking for firewood when the fighting broke out in Malakal in 2013. A neighbour saved her three children from the bullets by taking them into the bush, which was the beginning of almost five years of separation.
