Forced Into Exile Again
We lived in Ethiopia for four years in a refugee camp . It was not a happy place . It was very harsh with people dying every day of illness and disease . There were no tents or huts for shelter and food was scarce . We slept in trees . The United Nations came and brought us food to eat . The cooking oil they gave us was contaminated and made many people fatally ill . One morning we heard that the war was coming to Ethiopia . When it reached our camp the killing started . It was time to go again .
