Darth....

My family had to go through a similar situation when my aunt died. She had no other family and after months of paperwork and court appearances, her death was said to be of "unnatural cause".

I am deeply saddened by your loss. You are a good friend, even if it's just by means of Yahoo that we communicate. Please accept my heartfelt sympathies for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

A mother is a source of inspiration to anyone and such a loss is not a mere funeral one has to attend. I pray that you will find comfort in knowing that she is no longer in any pain.

I'm so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. It's most unfortunate that due to some lazy individual's negligence people loose their loved ones. Unfortunately such gross negligence is evident in private hospitals also. Just get a thorough investigation done.

Something similar happend a few months ago to Zim $ when he lost his sister, during the public sector strike.

Hi Darth
My deepest condolances mate...

Hello Mate,
Please accept my deepest condolances and will think of you in these difficult times. It is even more shocking to read that this happened in a private hospital. They are usually OK.
Keep well my friend and give them hell. I would too. God bless.

I am so sorry for your loss and to have to come back to SA like this is so sad. I agree with you how could they do that, just not care, it is mocking the very values and codes they swear an oath to uphold - i pray you find them and you make them pay. If i were in your shoes i would talk to Freek Robinson at out SABC2 television station and have him investigate and expose them because they deserve it. Good luck and God bless

Darth please accept my condolences. I am really sorry to hear that this is something that really could have been prevented with the right care. You go back and do what you have to do. I wish you well.

My condolences to you and your family Darth.
That is truly inexcusable.

Hello Darth Vader, please accept my condolences. This is never the kind of reason one needs to return home. I try to imagine how you feel, it must be very frustrating, knowing that there is not much one can do now. May you have strength to endure this tragedy. But, at the moment, I think, you want to punch the next nurse or doctor in the face when you see them.
I had a friend whose wife went into a state hospital for an hysterectomy and she passed away because some idiot had not given her the thrombosis prophylactic injection after the op.
This is however, not the kind of error one expects from a private hospital.

Hey, broer...sorry to hear that....It's really sad how some people have become heartless.....hope you and your family get strong at this time.....keep well!!!!!

such a sadness crosses my heart right now....
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Go well. GOD BLESS!!

If it was a goverment hospital than what did you expect, our minister of health is a drunk thief,

But if it was a private hospital you can stir up some heat

my advice is get some media involvement then you'll get more answers

Jeez

I wish to express my condolences on your terrible loss Darth. May you and your family be strong during this time.

My condolences on the passing of your mother.

Very sorry to hear about your loss. I'm sure your memories of her will sustain you as you move forward. Though death should always be expected, it is disheartening if that is cause by human failure. I know that you are going to miss her voice, her smile and her advice to you, but I hope you take solace in knowing that she gave birth to a son, who grew to be a man of principle. I never met you, but I know you from your postings here and Iâ€™m convinced that she instilled good values in you. Like others said, be strong; even now you should know that you donâ€™t walk alone, in spirit we are with you..^^^)))((((

Nooit bro, thats not cool.
You have my condolences.
It is unfortunate to return under these conditions.

Ive seen similiar stories in my local papers.
What do you expect when our health ministers a drunken klepto?

Give them hell.

Jade Moon

My sincere condolences to you and your family. You will be in my prayers.

Accept my condolences!

I do not think this is a true reflection of the whole system. It may be of that particular health institution or unprofessional staff members on duty...

Sorry for your loss, ou Darth. Wraakgedagtes is seker in hierdie omstandighede normaal, oor jy ver was en magteloos voel oor jy niks aan die tragiese gebeure kon doen nie. Maar probeer eers al die feite kry.

It's at a low standard compaired to Europe. It's Africa .

One of the reasons I don't live there anymore.
Before my mom died she was in hospital and just as dinner arrived the doctor came and wanted to see her. He left the tray at the bottom of the bed and pulled the curtains closed.
When he finished he opened the curtains to find that the food had been stolen. They would not get her more so I went out to buy her something.
Thank God for national health,even if we do complain about it.
