Victor Siniyu, along with his wife and children, are happy to see the end of 2014. That's because this year has been filled with doctors and hospitals and treatments—and fear. It all started 8 years ago in Bungoma, Kenya, when Victor was 23 years old. He noticed an open sore on his chest. Medicines didn't heal it; instead, it just got bigger and uglier. There were no doctors near his village and traveling to the nearest hospital was financially impossible. So Victor just made the best of it and tried to keep living a normal life.
