"We unapangaje mtoto azaliwe lini? Ina maana pia ile mimba ilivyoingia, pia wewe uliipanga – nataka ii mimba miezi flani, mpaka ikifika miezi flani, huyu mtoto azaliwe. Uchungu unakuja tu na si ati walimforci uchungu uingie, kwanza siku zake zilipitiliza na ni wiki zilipitiliza za mtoto kutoka. Uchungu umemshika asubuhi. Baba mtu usiku ndio ikawa birthday yake. Mtoto kazaliwa saa saba. Unampangaje mtoto? Yaani mi ata sielewi. Ni ujinga tu watu wanapenda sana kuongelea, nalafu watu wanapenda sana kufuatilia mambo ya watu."
She also revealed that Tanasha’s labour was very painful and agonizing. and that she felt very sorry and wanted to share the pain with her. She even went ahead to the waiting room and prayed for her.
Ukishakua na uchungu, hujielewi, kwasabu unakua akili zinaruka. Tulikua tunamsubiria uchungu, anavolia, anavofanya, mpaka unajiskia vibaya, unaona maskini mtoto wa watu. Tuko na sisi, hamna upande wake, so tulikua tunaomba sana. Unajua ilifikia kipindi kuna kitu kama kiliniingia hivi. Yaani vile anavolia, unatamani tu uchukue ule uchungu wake kidogo, umsaidie tu kidogo. So nilienda sehemu ya mapumziko, nilikaa, niliomba sana
