My mom, aum Lemo, lived all her life in Wamling until our dad passed away in 1994. She then came to live with me and in Thimphu along with three younger sisters. She has lived a hard life. She  gave birth to 13 children excluding a miscarriage. During those days, food was scarce and the burden of tax and inkind payments to government was heavy. She says that life has become so easy now.  She is survived by six chidren, sixteen grand children and numerous grand children from her sister and brother.
