"I MIGHT TELL YOU that every morning, on my way to work, I cry, always at the same hour.
I no longer know how to answer people when they ask how many children I have.
I might tell you that I do not sleep at night and I fill it with the sound of the radio to occupy my mind and stop thinking.
I might tell you that I feel ashamed of laughing now.
I might tell you that I look elsewhere whenever I come across the sight of a wedding, of other people's happiness, because the display of their joy is like so many stab wounds to my heart.
This is now what my daily life is like. No child, no individual, should have to put up with such barbarity."
