After the birth of their second-born in 2008, the Njoroges were working on plans to secure their children’s future when disaster struck. Their first-born child Fyona Wanjiku Kabitta was diagnosed with stage four kidney failure when she was in Standard One.

“She suddenly started experiencing fevers, lost appetite and her frolics around the house were replaced by subdued moments of solitude,” said Walter Njoroge Kabitta, the father, a businessman in Mombasa.
