Did we really have disabled children, even the blind or a serious limp child out bush in the desert ? And how did the mother and dad and families cope with the child? The Ngutu Cooleman was like a cot, just the right size to fit a small sick child. The Ngutu was used in many ways to carry food, water, a child, also bush medicine. Anyway, did any disabled children make it out from the desert? Did the parents and family make a big decision to leave a disabled child out bush?
