My name is Evelyn, and I'm from Effiduase. Before I met my fiance, Akwasi Amankwa, he was my driver. He drove me for a long time before he asked me to marry him.
At first, I didn't agree to his offer because I thought he wanted my money. A few months later, he put pressure on me to accept it and have sex with him.
One day, my fiance went to my house to do a ceremony called "knocking." He also bought a ring, put it on my finger, and promised to marry me.
Since then, I've been sick and haven't been hungry, but I found out later that I was pregnant with Amankwa. I could no longer work because I had morning sickness every day. Within a few days, I got weak and could no longer move. I couldn't even walk again.
My fiancee bathed me because I couldn't. Because of what was going on, my sister-in-law started making fun of me, which led to a fight in the family.
I was surprised when I found out that Amankwa has another wife, but I couldn't let him because of my condition.
Even after giving birth, I didn't get better from my illness. Instead, it got worse every day.
At that moment, I realized that the ring Amankwa had given me might be making me sick.
Later, he took pictures of me and our baby, but that night I had a horrible dream that someone killed my baby with a knife.
I have prayed a lot to get rid of this bad sign, but I haven't slept much because of it. I also don't think that my illness is because of that ring.
I then asked my fiance for those photos, but he said I couldn't see them until he was done with what he wanted to do with them. Because of my illness and the dream I had, I am now afraid that I will die with my baby.
