HULDEBLYKE
LIANA DE WET
Ons moes onverwags afskeid neem van ons geliefde pasiënt –
Liana de Wet op 17 Mei 2022!
Felicity het vir ses jaar lief en leed met haar gedeel.
Ons gaan haar baie mis.
Ten spyte van haar kanker-stryd het sy nog kans gesien om
NFS Caregivers se Blikkie-projek vir ons te hanteer.
Liana se menswees wat onbevange haar worstel-stryd oor
haar gesondheid, kolostomie en alles rondom dit met God
op kinderlike wyse met Hom stry en elke keer aan
Felicity bevestig het dat God ‘n God van tweede kanse is!
Liana is nou toegevou in God se liefde, al haar seer en kommer
is weg en haar ewige vrede het nou aangebreek.
Rus sag Liana, ons gaan jou almal baie mis!
SUSTER ADRI VAN HEERDEN
Suster Adri van Heerden se laaste bladsy van haar lewensboek is
voltooi op 27 Augustus 2020. Die Here het haar van haar aardse
woning weggeneem en na haar Ewige Tuiste oorgeplaas.
Suster Adri was ‘n omgee mens, vol liefde, wat almal om haar
aangeraak het. So sal elkeen van ons sy eie waardevolle en
mooi herinnering van haar kan koester en onthou.
Tye gevul met saamwees, verpleeg- en versorgingstye, saam bid,
saam kuier en verseker mooi gesinstye … en dan nou ook totsienstye.
Haar plek is leeg, haar stem is stil, maar ons berus, dit is Gods wil!
Haar heengaan word diep betreur deur almal wie haar geken het!
Haar menswees sal gemis word, maar ons weet sy is vrygemaak van al
die aardse pyn en is nou in ‘n Ewige Lewe gevul met vrede, geluk en liefde.
ZORHA MOOSA JOGEE
For 11 years, Zohra Jogee brought joy and sweetness to those in Northern Free State
Caregivers Organisation, as well as the community in Kroonstad.
In the organisation we’ve experienced Zohra as an amazing lady! She was always kind and
willing to help with our general projects and fundraising projects.
She refers patients to us for assistance to help them with medical equipment from our
loan bank such as walking frames, wheelchairs, etc.
Zohra participates in community projects which consists of Mandela Day Activities;
Soup Kitchens in Snake Park (very poor township in Maokeng); outreach to an old age
home in Maokeng; packing of monthly food parcels and Clothing Drives.
Zohra and her friends always participate during our yearly
health walks.
She was a board member of our organisation in the portfolio of the Patient
Co-Ordinator of the Indian Community.
She was a unique person, always smiling - giving advice for people who she might came across on her
daily routine to inspire them. She was a “hugging”-kind of person and well loved by community members.
She was giving talks re. the Muslim community and they way of living - building bridges in this way
in Kroonstad’s community. Zohra was always a well-dressed lady. She loved bright colours which
remind one of a bunch of flowers!
She was also talking about her children and grandchildren’s achievements. Zohra was very proud of
her family. Her caring instincts helped many cancer patients during their last days of suffering.
As the secretary of the Northern Free State Caregivers (Cathy Lubbe) I also want to share my tribute to
Zohra because I asked her to join as a volunteer at the previous Northern Free State Cancer Association
where I was the Regional Manager – it was 17 years ago! She was also a board member.
When the Cancer Association office closed down in Kroonstad, she then decided to join the
Northern Free State Caregivers like myself to go on with community work.
Zohra was someone so special and can never be forgotten!
May Allah grant Zohra the highest stages in Jannah. In Shaa Allah.

MARCIA RELLING
Daar is werklik tye dat die lyding en afskeid van ‘n pasiënt mens diep raak.
Hierdie maand was dit vir my persoonlik ‘n baie moeilike maand.
Ek moes nie net ‘n goeie vriendin groet nie, maar ‘n mentor en gewese werkgewer.
Sy en haar hele gesin het my om-arm toe ek byna alles wat belangrik in my lewe was,
verloor het en ek selfs nie werk en ‘n inkomste gehad het nie.
Hulle het my soos familie in hulle binnekring ingeneem, na Bangkok geneem vir
aankope, twee maal jaarliks saamgeneem na Johannesburg vir aankope vir die
winkel en gehuisves by hul kinders, uitgeneem vir etes en my so baie bederf!
Wat ‘n ongelooflike voorreg was dit nie vir my om haar met liefde en deerniste
kon versorg tot die einde nie.
(Dankie vir my span: sr. Adri, Petro, Amanda en Sarie wat dit vir my moontlik gemaak het.)
Ek salueer haar vir die wyse waarop sy haar diagnose van lewerkanker aanvaar en verwerk het,
haar diepe geloof en liefde vir haar God. Marcia – rus in vrede, ek gaan jou baie mis! - Felicity
