PERCY CHRISTIAAN STELLENBERG
Having been shot or after they shot me, one of the men got a private car which they stopped in the road as it passed and they put me in this car.  I was then taken to Lenmac Clinic and there Dr Valley performed and emergency operation on me.  Dr Valley then said to his colleagues that he though that my brain had been damaged one way or another because I was not calmed down by the anaesthetic and that I continued talking.  He thought that my brain was damaged and that I would have to be taken to Baragwaneth Hospital.  I was put in the ambulance and taken to Baragwaneth Hospital.  That must have been between seven and nine o' clock at night.  I cannot remember.  I did not have a watch at that time.
 I arrived at Baragwaneth Hospital Thursday evening.  I was put in a machine which they call a Scanner and after I came out of this machine I stayed in Baragwaneth for that Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and then on the Monday, no one in the hospital helped me with washing or anything else.  I was lying there in deep pain, I was given a pill

and as I complained about the pain which I was experiencing, that is the only response.  When my wife arrived at the hospital I asked her whether I could not return to Dr Valley or she could not return to Dr Valley and asked him if he could somehow address the problem since I was experiencing a lot of pain and receiving no assistance.  
 My brother then took my sister to Dr Valley at his rooms and Dr Valley told them that under the circumstances they would rather bring me to him since he knew that I was badly hurt.  I stayed in Lenmac Clinic for two further days.  Then Dr Valley returned and said to me, Percy, you have been badly hurt.  Your entire skull has been cracked and that several operations would be necessary.  I then told Dr Valley to do whatever he could to return me to a state of proper health.  
 The first operation he used wires to heal the cracks in my skull.  He then told me that a second operation would be necessary since my bottom jaw had shifted.  I am not sure exactly how long this operation lasted, but after the operation when I woke up I asked Dr Valley what my circumstances were now.  He told me that he used screws for my lower jaw as well as plates in my cheeks so that my face could return to its original state since I was now misformed.  This continued and after a further year I needed an additional operation since I was no longer able to breathe through my one nostril.  They removed something from my ribcage and placed this in my nose to open my nose so that I could breathe.  I am now able, again, to breathe properly.  However, in Winter time I experience pain in my face.  In Summer I smell a bloody smell and when I blow my nose there is hardened blood or what appears to be hardened

blood that comes from my nose and I continue to smell this smell of blood.  As Summer continues the one side of my face swells up as it gets warmer and in Winter I experience pain.
