She was found only in the evening, covered with branches and with her eyes clogged with sand. Her family was unable to provide treatment, and as a result, Wanga went blind. She was sent to the House of the Blind, where she spent three years. Vanga had the ability to determine the diseases of people with great accuracy and predict their future fate.
