At 10 years of age, Florentius Koech fell sick and was admitted to an isolation ward for three months.
His health was deteriorating daily, but doctors could not figure out why. Despite different medications, his condition worsened until a visiting American doctor examined him and ordered drugs from abroad, before flying out.
Two weeks later, Koech regained his health, despite a paralysed left leg. He was discharged and he later recovered at home.
