Life often presents us with peculiar and inexplicable events, and all we can do is learn to live with them, no matter how strange or frightening they may be, while seeking divine guidance for solutions.
Love, too, is one of those inexplicable phenomena. As the saying goes, “love is blind.” This sentiment is often borne out in reality, where we see unlikely couples, such as a 90-year-old man marrying a 17-year-old girl.
Today’s article brings you the heartwarming story of a devoted woman who married a disabled man, and together they have built a happy family with children.
The Story of This Couple
In a modest community in Kinyarwanda, a mother of two beautiful children captured the world’s attention when she married the love of her life, a man who is disabled and can only move his gizzards. Despite her family’s disapproval, she chose love over convention and has been carrying her husband for years, raising their wonderful children together.
Valence, the husband, shared his story with an interviewer. He revealed that he was not born disabled. His condition began at the age of seven when he fell ill and slipped into a coma. During this coma, he was clinically dead for several hours before miraculously reviving. However, when he woke up, some parts of his body, including his legs, had stopped functioning.
Despite his disability, Valence’s name, which means “Healthy” or “Strong,” is a testament to his enduring spirit. He remains a resilient and strong individual.
This couple’s story is a powerful reminder of the boundless nature of love and the strength found in true devotion.
