来自刚果民主共和国的消息。在痛苦中寻找希望

内内医生每天上班时都会经过潘子医院。她听说了穆克维格医生和其他医生对在那里接受治疗的妇女犯下的罪行的故事。她需要知道这些可怕的故事是否是真的。

她向自己提出挑战,要找出真相,看看在Panzi接受治疗的妇女身上到底发生了什么。 

妮妮医生找到了潘子医院的医生,要求他们无偿培训她三个月。在最初的几个月里,妮妮医生了解到了真相--在我们的性暴力幸存者(SSV)项目中与她共事的妇女告诉她生活的噩梦--性暴力的残酷程度是她无法想象的,没有人应该去想象。她告诉我,最初的几个月很难熬;在心理和情感上非常困难。她说,那时候没有人去看心理医生。"你会因为听到这些故事而两天不睡觉,然后想,哦,我很痛苦,我感觉不舒服,我想知道为什么。也许我累了,也许我只是需要吃点药来帮助我睡觉。"

与她丈夫的交谈让她度过了难关。但最有帮助的是妇女本身--那些遭受过难以言表的暴行的妇女,每天早上都在门口迎接她,微笑着欢迎她去工作。她说,她感到有些羞愧,她只是听了这些故事,而这些妇女却经历了这些故事,并在另一边变得更加坚强。她有什么资格抛弃她们?如果她呆在家里哪怕一天,她们就会追问她。她怎么能离开她们呢?
