CHAIRPERSON
Thank you Mama Dodo.  Mama Dodo, we have no further questions.  We thank you very, very much for coming today to talk about this very painful part of your life.
 Last week I sat at a, not last week, the week before, I sat at a hearing in Alexandra where we heard a mother, again, talking about the loss of three sons.  All within a very short period of time and, again, there are so many mothers throughout the country who have come and who have

talked about the loss of their children, the loss of their husbands.  Often, mothers have not known what their sons or daughters were involved in in terms of the struggle that people fought and there may be other reasons that we need to find out about as we go through the stories that we are going to be hearing today and as our investigations will reveal, but I hope today that you have got some comfort from coming to talk about these stories.  
 I also hope that the councilling services, the councilling people who are here today will give you as much support as is necessary through the next few weeks and months.  Thank you very much for coming.
