CHAPTER 14: STARTING A NEW LIFE

            Diana was alone and she had to make a new life for herself. She knew many rich and famous people, but she did not only want to spend time with them. She wanted a normal life and she wanted to help the poor and sick.

            Diana also wanted to help people in other countries. She was very worried about landmines. Many counties use landmines in wars. Landmines are very dangerous. Many people did not know about landmines and Diana wanted to tell the world about them. She talked to the British Red Cross and, in January 1997, she went to Angola for the Red Cross. There was terrible war in Angola and there were many landmines in that country. She worked hard and visited dangerous places, but she was not afraid. In the UK, in May 1997, Diana also wanted to help people with eating problems and she made a speech. ‘I don’t have problems with bulimia any more,’ she said.
