“We entered into marriage in 2007, and it wasn’t until 2014 that I finally became pregnant. Those seven years were filled with agonizing waiting, but it was certainly not for a lack of trying,” Elom Anang shared in her husband’s memoir.

According to Elom, their path to conception was fraught with numerous obstacles, including the devastating experience of multiple miscarriages that deepened their heartache.

Elom further revealed that the most trying moment for her arrived when she finally achieved a successful pregnancy. Despite her efforts to maintain privacy by avoiding public events, news of her pregnancy quickly spread.

Recalling the experience, she shared, “Almost everyone became aware of it, despite my attempts to preserve my privacy by avoiding numerous public events. It was a deeply distressing experience for me, and I felt immense pain. Having everyone intrude upon my personal life was something I had never anticipated or desired.”
