UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Mia Farrow did not complete her supposed 21-day hunger strike after feeling so weak. "I couldn't do it. I just got weaker and weaker,"
The main reason why Farrow fasted starting April 27 was to protest the Sudanese president's decision which was to expel 16 aid agencies in Darfur. As a cause of that, many people starved in the area.
She shared, "My doctor visited on Wednesday and told me to have sugar immediately because my blood sugar count dropped. He said I could go into seizures… I got up out of bed and went down to my knees. My muscles were aching."
Asked what she was doing in the past 12 days, she replied, "I watched Schindler's List all the way through. Then I cried and cried. I got very emotional at the drop of a hat. I would perk up when my granddaughter came over. I'd play with her a little and that was great."
