(The Christian Science Monitor) The greatest betrayal of James Keppa’s life took only as long as uttering these words: we need an ambulance.
The next day, village medics knocked on the door of the local chief, Nyuma Tommy, to inform him that they had come to take his son to an Ebola treatment center.
“At that time, most people weren’t coming back from the treatment centers—they went there to die,” Tommy said. “We knew letting him go was saying good-bye.”
