Extreme fishing


I read a book of the Brittish Ambasador to The High Commisioner For Refugees diaries ( Angeina Jolie, notes from my travels ).

In these diary pages, many stories of hardship are told, but one in particular stunned me when I read it.

She writes of a family in Cambodia.

The man and wife have 6 children, one of which is a baby.

The woman has mental health struggles, so she leaves her husband,taking the baby with her.

The man is left to bring up the other 5 children alone.

He is blind.

A while after his wife leavesĀ  them he is involoved in a landmine explosion, which takes off both his arms.

He then had to catch fish with his teeth to feed his children.
