If asked, most people would love to be added many years, some would even die to have that extra year on earth but it's different for 119-years-old Kisii Granny who laments that death has forgotten her.
People in the area are also shocked as the old lady continues to pull through.
The lady laments that she has been left ‘alone’ by people of her age. She, however, shocked residents when she said she no longer wants to live.
Through her daughter Hellen Osoro the old woman has been lamenting since last year that she is tired and opts to rest.
Age is eating up the old lady who no longer walks and has to be carried all along. Her speech is also fading and she is losing her eyesight too.
In what surprised many, the old lady has never seen a doctor. Her magnificent health is to ‘blame’ for the many years she has pulled through.
She, however, feels she is a burden to her family.
“We have to do everything for her including cleaning and feeding her. It is not an easy task since you have to be there all time, though we thank God that she is still breathing,” said Osoro.
Although a modern house has been built for her, granny Osoro still insists on sleeping in her grass-thatched house.
The lady who has since lost her vision loves music and her great-grandchildren always come during holidays to sing for her.
