A Father’s Battle to Protect his Children with Albinism
When my first son with albinism was born…I didn’t know what to think, but I immediately decided to love him.
But in many families this is not the case. Some keep their children inside all the time, afraid of what neighbours might say, or because they lack knowledge about how to care for a child with albinism.
Often, the men choose to leave their wives as soon as the baby is born, arguing that it is not their child.
The myths about albinism in East Africa are many, and they vary between countries, but the general perception of the skin condition remains the same.
It is said that a person with albinism holds great power in their body and that if you give a limb to a witchdoctor he will make you rich. It is also believed that they are in fact ghosts and not human. The situation is not as bad in Uganda, but the daily discrimination and lack of support from the government still makes life very hard.
In school many children with albinism are bullied and fellow classmates refuse to sit next to them. An inability to see well, which afflicts many with albinism, becomes a major handicap in the classroom. When combined with the usual challenges of getting a good education while attending the local village school, which lacks essential facilities such as books, pens and other supplies, this proves disheartening for the children and their parents.
