I think it is really terrible what is happening over in Africa. We are so blind to what is happening. I think if more people find out about what is happening we can make a difference. I hope that america and other countries would more of an effort to find a cure and provide better sanitary conditions for Africa.What would you want to tell the world if you lived there?
