I am the third child of six children. I attended the St. Teresa’s Convent High School and graduated in 1980. I received a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Liberia in 1990; just when the Liberian civil war began. I earned my Master of Business Administration Degree from the University of Phoenix.
During my years in college, I worked and attended the Don Bosco Technical School at night where I met and married Hedison Doe, Sr. We had six children: Kayennoh, Benedicta, Cyndi, Blamette, Hedison, Jr., and Sonpon.
I decided to remain in the country with my family. I refused to be a refugee or a burden to my relatives. I hoped the invasion would be a coup d’état and the carnage be over soon. My family and I lived in Caldwell and not in central Monrovia where the Executive Mansion was. The place all the Liberian warlords wanted. Like most Liberians, I was wrong. The civil war was atrocious. I lived through the woes, throes, and thrones of the Liberian horror. When I could no longer live in terror, I became a refugee. In my heart, I promised God and Our Lady, to write this book to tell the world of the miracles that helped me survive the Liberian pogrom.ver menos
