Searching for Halima, my cousin who moved to United States in 1991
Fatima Al-Hassan United States , Atlanta ≈ 1991 295 views
Halima, my beloved cousin, left Ibadan in 1991. The distance was supposed to be temporary. It wasn't.
Ethnic tensions in our region made it dangerous to stay. Halima, then 38, left with the blessing of the whole family.
We stayed in touch through phone calls and the occasional letter. Halima spoke of life in Atlanta — the challenges of adapting, the loneliness, but also the small victories.
The last time we heard anything was 2012. The phone number was disconnected and we had no other way to reach them.
I remember playing soccer in the dusty field behind our neighborhood with Halima. Those are the memories I hold onto.
Halima would be around 73 today. thin and wiry, always moved with quick energy. I promised myself I would find them before it's too late. Please, if you know anything about Halima, reach out. We hold no grudges. Life is complicated. We just want reconnection.
