The damage is often cumulative, especially as the mothers are often sewn back up into an unnatural, constricted configuration after each birth. The accumulation of scar tissue, and the resistance caused by unnaturally rigid scar tissue in an area which would normally consist of soft flexible tissue, can cause major internal problems during labor and delivery. Of course, she could also have died of an infection unrelated to mutilation, since post-natal care and antibiotics probably weren't available to her. But the number of mothers and babies killed every year as a result of mutilation practices is huge, and yet the practice continues to be very widespread. Any child who escapes from that culture early enough to avoid being brainwashed by it is lucky, even if it's via adoption by a self-absorbed pop star.

Andersen also has fond memories of his daughter, who he describes as a quiet, home-loving child and a committed Christian. "She used to go to church a lot and sang in the choir. She would walk to church and then come back and sit here - she wouldn't run about like the other children."

Do Christians mutilate women?
