I live with ten members of my family - my parents, four brothers and three sisters - in a temporary shelter in Unichipalong camp in Bangladesh.
After walking for six days, we arrived at the border with Bangladesh and the next day we crossed the river Naf in a boat. My father was a farmer in Powanchong, in the region of Mowandow, Myanmar. I’ve lost the strength in my muscles, my sense of balance and my coordination, which makes it much harder to do everyday activities. I was hit in the spine - in the cervical and lumbar vertebrae - which has weakened my upper and lower limbs. I suffered a spinal cord injury from a beating I received when my village in Myanmar was attacked, and now I’m disabled.
