The next morning we awoke to my uncle shouting "a boat I can see a boat!"
A fishing vessel was approaching, it pulled up alongside us and the fisherman jumped aboard our boat.
"Sit down all of you!" The leader shouted waving a gun around.
These men were pirates. They stole everything we had, rings, bracelets, necklaces even people's gold teeth.
A pirate grabbed hold of a baby, he lifted him over the side of the boat threatening to throw him overboard, my father screamed "We must save this poor child!"
All the scared hungry people on our boat stood up prepared to fight these pirates to save the young child's life even if it meant risking their own.
The pirate changed his Ming and threw the child at his weeping mothers feet, his life was spared, that baby was my little brother Luke.
As the terrorising pirates were leaving one felt sorry for us and tossed a bottle of water, it wasn't much, but it saved our lives.
