A month after discharged we managed to find the mother and babies in the village to see how they were doing. A conclusion was quickly made; she couldn’t take care for all children herself. Her husband left her so she has to take care for the children and to make sure everyone in the family has enough to eat.
We agreed with her to come to the hospital frequently so we could support her. I started providing maize, likuni phala, blankets, clothes and money for transport. Now there was more food available we were hoping her breast milk would increase however reality was different.
I stayed with Trinity for almost 10 days. I cared for her and loved her as much as I love my other daughters. I slept with her in the hospital and watched her day and night. The pain and cold I felt while she was dying is something I cannot explain. When Trinity died she took a piece of me with her. I will never forget her and always love her. I know she is in a safe place right now but the pain I feel is difficult.
Today she was buried in her home village.
Forever in my heart, a star in heaven.
Wat in-verdrietig .... Wat een liefde heb je haar gegeven. ..
