She, however, acknowledged that it was a difficult thing to do, but she did it because it was worth it.

The woman said:

"It was not easy, but it was worth it. I reached a point where I started thinking that what if both of us died here in India, who will keep our three children! But I drew my strength in prayer and my favourite verse 1 John 3:16. I did it for him and the children!
"I thought this was the end of me seeing my husband Benjamin Mowa and at some point I visualized myself as a widow. I couldn't handle it so I decided to take the risk.
"I did it for the love I have for my family and also to fulfill my wedding vows, I thank God it all went successfully, please, help me thank God for saving us."

"God bless you and your family, Madam. You have done well. The risk you took is not just a risk. It was the manifestation of your faith in God. All those who experienced the miraculous in the Bible were people who took the risk of their lives."

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh reported that while many people become estranged after a divorce, it isn't always the case as some manage to remain good friends regardless of the situation.

This has been the same for Kelly Hope and her ex-husband of 5 years, Dan Pyatt. It appears remaining good friends with his ex-wife and mother of his kids, paid off as she recently saved Pyatt's life.

Pyatt who had two failed kidneys was on a 12-month waiting that was yet to produce any donor. Kelly Hope seeing that there was no hope for a donor anytime soon, decided to come to his aid and went for a test for the transplant. Although Hope was a good tissue match, their blood didn’t match.
