'Our family would be described as the one with a mad sister'    

According to Sister Pascaline Agoton, St. Camille's head nurse, Odette is often in denial about her current pregnancy. "She still has some bad days when she cries, she is erratic or simply in a foul mood and rejects that she is pregnant. We suffered this in the early days when she first came here," Agoton explained. "Today, she is aware and accepts her pregnancy and willingly takes her medicines."  Agotons was once herself a patient at the center and understands better than most the stigma of living with a mental health condition and the vacuum that the lack of family support leaves. "Many family members reject them because of their mental state. Some families drop them at our gate and run away just because they don't want to pay the 5,500 CFA ($9). They only focus on the money, forgetting the patient also needs family support in order to feel loved and recover quickly," she said.  สนับสนุนโดย : สล็อตวอเลท
