MRS SIKHOSANA
Thank you for that.  What bothered me as well was that at that time it was a difficult time for us as a community.  People, the Whites did not hear anything about us and they had no feeling for us at all.  You know, when I got to the hospital and found out that the nurses were attending to my son, I asked them to leave him so that I do the whole thing myself because they were not doing the job patiently.  When they removed the bandage, they would just take it any way they wanted to and the skin was peeling on the wound.  That's why I felt I should do this myself because I will pay much more attention.   I asked and they finally agreed that I could do this.  He survived three months.  I took him with but he could not stand up or walk or do anything.  I get very disturbed when I think about the fact that he was taking care of us at home.  When you take this bandage, it would peel the skin and what was hurting the most was that you could see the bullet inside.  They left the bullets inside.  They didn't even attempt to extract them.  If only they attended to my son, I think he would still have been alive to-day.
