Blessing Timidi Digha, a sexual reproductive health & rights advocate, lost two of her kids when a fire broke out at their home last weekend.
According to reports, Blessing and her husband were away, leaving two-year-old ltunu and four-year-old Damilare Omolere in the care of their 11-year-old elder sister. Sadly, a fire broke out at their home and killed the two youngest kids in Ondo state.
The grieving mother has shared a very courageous post on Facebook in which she fully established her faith in God inspite of the tragedy that has befallen her family.
She wrote:
On the 23rd of June 2018, My husband Olabode Omolere and I experienced terrible loss of Two beautiful kids that brought us so much joy. Itunuoluwa and Oluwadamilare. I am still broken. Its just a week but the pain is still insane, i thought i will die, I still have the thoughts of self destruction but. I am so glad that i gave life to these wonderful kids, they always brought me Joy. Always! Everyone has their narrative of what went wrong, some garnished even to our own disbelief.
As i hope we will heal somehow and someday, despite the tears, blames, pain and questions, I say JESUS I LOVE YOU, ALL I HAVE IS YOURS, YOURS I AM, YOURS I WANT TO BE, DO WITH ME AS YOU WILL ?
? (its a painful prayer to say at this time).
Thank you for being there for us, we really appreciate it
