“Life has not been a bed of roses for me. The period I was waiting on God for the fruit of the womb, was one of the worst moments. On the last Saturday in 2012, to be precise, I was doing a show on miscarriage, while I had miscarriage the weekend of the crossover into the New Year. And I went on air and I said, “if you’ve just miscarried share it with me.”
“People were calling, saying, Aunt Landa; you don’t know what it feels to miscarry. But they had no idea that I have just miscarried. But from that period, God picked up that lowest moment. It was low, but somehow, I found out in my val ley, that the moment I was able to speak to one person, I was able to pick myself up.
“To some people, when they are at their lowest moment they buy dresses for themselves, but for me, I look for people to help. I had 18 miscarriages before I eventually took in”
Yolanda also revealed that she had 97 men who wanted her hand in marriage before she finally chose her husband who is cardiologist.
Aunt Landa and husband celebrated the 1st birthday of their son Jaron David on October 23, 2014.
