Horek typically spends all day working in the garden, and at dusk
returns home to cook and help care for her new granddaughter. Like
most women her age, she traditionally cuts a finger off each time
a relative or close friend dies. Paying respect and caring for one’s
spirit ancestors are considered essential for the health of the
tribe. Over the years she has lost two brothers, a daughter and
a husband to malaria. Dani Tribe
