Nairobi, May 8 -- A week after Peninah Bahati Kitsao received aid to save her children from dying of hunger, the widow from Kisauni, Mombasa County, has lost her last born child.
Ms Kitsao's four-month-old baby, Mary Kaingu, died on Thursday morning after having a fever for three days.
"She developed a fever that saw her admitted on Monday," Ms Kitsao's first born Saumu Kaingu said.
"She was to be discharged on Wednesday as she had improved, only to die today," the 24-year-old said.
The family immediately made arrangements to collect the body from Coast General Hospital, where the child was treated, for the burial.
