The world went dark four years ago when Esther Nyawira Kamindo lost her eyesight. Nyawira had battled diabetes for a long time before the disease claimed her eyesight in 2014, thrusting her life into an unknown world of darkness. Being a prison warder, Nyawira suffered anxiety with the fear that her employer, The Kenya Prisons Service would sack her. Life lost meaning to her when doctors broke the sad news that she would never be able to see again.
