Bitter sweet joy for KCPE candidate Omondi

Reynard Omondi and his family cannot hide their joy after receiving news that a well-wisher has paid for his sight-restoring surgery through cornea grafting.

Tears of delight and disbelief are what engulfed the small family living in a one-roomed house near Dandora’s dumpsite.

“We are very happy, we are grateful to them and to God. I thought it would never be possible. I had given up, and I thought Omondi will stay blind, just tell them thank you… I don’t know them, but God will bless them,” Omondi’s mother explained as she uncontrollably let tears run down her cheeks.

But the prolonged cry left misgivings that all was not well.
