This is a story based on a film story of mine. Story Title is "My Second Baby" It is totally fiction though all sections of the story correspond directly to what generally happens in the Somali war and the subsequent flow of people into neighboring countries or in Europe and America.

Adrift with the howling ocean wínds
The boat has had an engine failure
Reducing all crew to floating objects

Among them was an old man of 70
sick he was
With no food and water death was inescapable
But his daughter had made a clever arrangement

She approached Arbaay, a teenage mother
Who had just given birth of a still born
But had milk in her breasts to feed another baby
Amran asked Arbaay if she could help her father

Warm hearted Arbaay accepted the request
She did not want to die with the milk
As there was no sign of hope in the horizon
But within the lack of hope she was ready to give hope
Though herself weak, frail and depleted
She nursed Amran´s father for several days
Till the Italian navy came to their rescue
When made safely to the Italian seashores
Daud reached Arbay´s ear with a soft whisper
"Thank you Arbaay" he said "you have saved my life
Let everything remain under our tongues"

Adding

"You are the first mom who nursed an adult
While I broke the world babyhood record
By becoming the first 70 year old baby ever
Inside the history of fleeing
You and I have made a history"
But nobody will know ever know about it
Arbaay simply looked down, speechless
Thinking of the baby she had buried in the Mediterranean waters

NB: for many years Arbay kept track of the family. She had later learned that the old man who had clung her breasts for an entire week (whom she had been nursing without herself having anything to eat) had been a top Alqaeda fugitive who has made sound economic footing in Europe. She first thought of blackmail jobs to either force him to share fortune or else face the music but later on she reverted to cooperate with the police in an effort to expose the reality behind this mans fleeing from Somalia.
