Elizabeth Chilambes first husband passed away in 1978, they had one child together. She remarried however and now have 7 children with her new husband. One of their daughters has epilepsy. When she was 13 she was found to be pregnant, 3 or 4 years later she was found pregnant again. She lost the second child but now have a son that she does not know is hers. No one knows how the girl got pregnant but they assume someone took advantage of her. Elizabeth maintains that her main concern is her daughter and grandson because there is no one else to care for them. Her daughter cannot go to school because the teachers will not care for her adequately if something happens, which means Elizabeth would have to go with her.
