 About the Author:
My name is Miriam Naava, 48 year old, and my son’s name is Samuel Ssemakula, 18 years old. We live in Bunamwaya,Uganda. |
I met Samuel at the age of 9 years when he was Stuttering.
When his father died long ago, he came with his mother and joined Empowered Miracle Center Church. Then after his mother died of snake poison I took care of him and became his guardian and spiritual mother.
We’ve tried to put Samuel at the Primary Education school but was a slow learner. And then we decided to get him some skills. As an Empowered Miracle Centre Church family, we decided to put him in our Children’s Orphanage Home where Samuel’s shades of stuttering went from being a slow learner to being a skilled worker.
Thank you sharing your powerful story about Samuel and helping him find his place in the world.
I’m so glad you’ve found the international stuttering community.
Hopefully, your story will help other parents and caregivers learn how they can make the world better for anyone who stutters.

And Samuel, I’m so happy to read you found people who love and take care of you, so that you could grow and become a strong man, capable of anything.
I wish you all the best in the future,
keep talking
