\u201cAs he went to bring the small dagger, the son brought an axe that they usually use to split firewood. As he wanted to stab my cousin brother, my mom intervened, and that\u2019s when the knife ended up in her hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs my mom fell to the ground near their gate, the man took the axe and struck her back. While he was doing that, he took the opportunity to stab my mom in her side ribs,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
