36 year old Sharon Korir was diagnosed with obstetric fistula after giving birth to her second child. A few weeks after being discharged from hospital with her baby, Sharon realised she had a problem when passing urine and feacal matter. She had no control and the passage routes seemed interchanged. This was a traumatic experience and she had to undergo a corrective surgery and many months of doctors’ visits until she got healed. She later founded the "Save a woman Fistula Foundation" which she says is a safe space for Fistula survivors to share, and encourage each other as well as seek solutions to their condition.

Thanks you are an awesome host too. God bless you
This is one of the most painful interviews I've ever watched. The government needs to do so much more than what it's currently doing in regards to availing fistula testing and treatment services.
Mothers go through hell and back for our kids. Think about the pregnancy for 9 months, birthing esp if its CS,feeding. After i saw what my wife went through when giving birth to my daughter i have another level of respect for mothers. Mums rock. They are the best. Hug your mum while you still can.Sharon pole sana and am glad you are ok. You are beautiful in and out for helping other women.
Thank you mad respect to you for applauding women. God bless 💞
Governments should train as many doctors as possible to carry out fistula corrective surgeries.
I suffered from recto vaginal fistula (RVF) for 15 yrs,after birth it took like a year to know what am suffering from, i couldn't afford to get a surgery by then and they were no free camps by that time , in 2014 i went to KNH were Amref were conducting a free camp and Surgery and after 2 months of clinics and reviews i managed to be booked and underwent a surgery performed by Dr.Khisa, it took me 6 months to heal am 95% healed but i just thank God for that
My fistula was the type that the stool was coming from Vagina, i wasn't leaking urine but had no control when it came to farting or when i had loose stool, it could just come out by itself and from my vagina and when you feel like passing stool and i delayed it like for 30mins or 1 hour it could find its way out by using my vagina
Infection was the order of the day
i thank God and thank AMREF and KNH for they restored my dignity back
Thanks Sharon from sharing it's just brought back memories from the past
You are welcome
I went through this while having my second child, it was so traumatising, luckily I got surgery after two months of delivering, won't wish this experience to any woman.
May God help each and every woman who are pregnant, about to give birth and who are going through stuff, cancer, surgery, mental disorders etc…and stuff they can’t talk about also for those with fistula. May God help you in this awareness 🙏🙏
My heart goes out to all the women who are going through challenges of being a woman by themselves. Thank you Sharon for choosing to walk with some of these women. Keep shining and may the foundation keep growing. Much respect 🙌🏾
From South Africa :Wow.... Thank you for sharing. So many woman can learn from this video and be healed. We thank you profusely for taking a stand and voicing out all that is important. May the good Lord continues to bless you.
Thank you for your kind comments. May God bless you too dear.
😭😭😭😭😭😭Oh my God! Motherhood really is the greatest sacrifice, they go through alot.
True dear! It's only by God's grace
It's so sad that hospitals still deliver women and no feedback after examination..21days and no one noticed she had fistula 😩
it’s so sad, how come the doctors didn’t check the vagina and the rectum after delivery. This caused unnecessary suffering from the birth and delivery to postpartum. Bless her
A loud thank you to Justus. I have learnt a lot from your platform and it builds me day in day out
God is blessing your heart done work.

Brave Sharon 👏👏👏. God bless you ,I have afriend with fistula ,iwill connect with you.
Please do l would gladly walk with her through the healing process
This is grounds for suing your doctor...he/she should have been there early to either make an episiotomy to prevent 4th degree obstetric tears, or should have recommended a Caesarian Section from the start because of the size of the baby vis-a-vis the mother's pelvic region. Its the reason why so many professionally employed Kenyan women simply save money for ages and then plan for an elective CS from the get-go, in order not to have to deal with these types of horrible complications.
The most telling thing about this whole subject is that a study was done some time ago among female gynecologists in the West and the results showed that more than 85% of them do elective CS rather than go the natural childbirth route!! Keep in mind that these are the professionals who have studied medicine and fully comprehend how natural childbirth can wreak havoc on a woman's body.
Correct
Seven yrs gap like my boys😊😊
