For 43 years this woman disguised herself as a man
to be able to work and support her family in Egypt.
Sisa Abu Daooh has worked along side men in Egypt
for the past 43 years to support her family and avoid being forced to beg for
their basic sustenance.
Eventually her own daughter grew up, got Married,
but her husband took ill and was left jobless. Sissa Abu continued working to
support BOTH families! Today she is 64 and continues to work!
Sisa has said, "I preferred working in hard
labor like lifting bricks and cement bags and cleaning shoes to begging in the
streets in order to earn a living for myself and for my daughter and her
children."
This year Egypt is honoring her as "the ideal
mother."
Aside from what it says about the incredible
restrictions of many of those Mideastern cultures, it says even more about the
incredible dedication and perseverance of Sisa Abu Daooh.
