"And after she dies, the rains began. That day was just like today has been, sunny and hot. But the moment that [she] died, the sky became black. Black. It growled as if it would kill another person. We brought her body to the house. We washed her and wrapped her in white cloth. The sky kept getting darker. It rained and rained. Thundered...The rains started that day and didn't stop. The twentieth of September was the last rain we had before this day, the fifteenth of October. The people had already harvested. The millet was drying outside. This is very, very rare."

The walls of this church had witness the multitudes who'd come to [her] funeral. Just to the south, and a stone's throw away, was the hospital where [she] had birthed four children, and where she'd died. To the east was the children's graveyard where two of her children were buried, her first son and her last, and beyond that was [her] gravesite.
