This woman is part of the village's primary family, and the baby about three months old. My host was horrified to learn that the baby dislocated her collarbone the previous night and it took nearly a day for someone to attend to it while the baby was crying the whole time. When asked why it took so long, the woman replied that there was work to be done and the mother had to attend to the cows. She loves her child, but the cow gives her milk. The baby does not yet have a name, so my host was asked to suggest one and they accepted it!
