This episode deserves a women's march or a petition or something....

[@dineomaupa4365]

It is this story and the one of a woman who had her bladder cut due to negligence, I feel something needs to be done about them. I canr stop crying shem😭

[@keepitfrankwithfentse]

No a petition is not enough. Ours laws need to be changed specifically for women's health. The laws right now don't protect women and if that can change then those who are wrongful can be brought to justice.

[@sunrise7640]

Yhooo😭 I'm even ashamed to call myself a Healthcare worker🙆‍♀️ how do you not explain to a person in a language thaey understand when such decisions are taken, like how, human rights ziphi kanti🙆‍♀️

[@olgaphala9955]

Most of us who have given birth in public hospitals can attest to how cruel health workers are, those people have no respect for their patients. May God bless you for being the exception

[@ncisept5900]

Yhio... The problem is NOT talking to your patients. Because the lady who lost her child sounds like she had peurperal sepsis. But they should have explained and explained...or even explain to her parents if she wasn't in the right emotional state. We need to do better....

[@zamankalitahana8037]

Yho guys I'm so heart broken by this 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@lesedi6520]

What frustrates me the most is that we're being mistreated by women(nurses) when in labour at these hospitals😐

True, nurses disrespect us and its painful

Exactly 😢😢😢so sad yohhh

Relebogile is so strong and professional. I’d cry with the guests 😭😭😭 I’m so sorry to both of them 💔

[@lindomagubane8815]

The pain women face in these hospitals is just unimaginable. I pray for their strength. These are stories that leave permanent scars in your life.

[@theotherside602]

I don't think it was just negligence, something sinister is going and has been going on in that hospital.

[@Leradennis]

I agree!

[@xolilengcobo9969]

A lot of people complain about Bara taking their uterus.... 😭😭😭😭. There's something wrong with this hospital xem

[@AJ-TheGr8]

How can we protect eachother during this time? I think we should start petitioning for family to be present with us during birth no matter what is the state of the world, pandemic or no pandemic. They have her A DIRTY HOSPITAL GOWN. Everything else that followed was total disrespect. And for the first story, a womb taken out without explaining or divulgation. If this isn't evil then what is?

[@kmasilo9888]

I agree someone has to be there pandemic or not

[@thembekamagaga4453]

I agree yhuh

[@nonizulu4642]

I am most sure that if every person had to share their experiences at public hospitals, the internet would crash. Cuz wow. This was too much for me 💔

[@mphohappiness1736]

This lady must get a good lawyer and sue. What a sad story! Yoh ha ah

[@conquer7259]

Public or private hospital, anything can go wrong. To patients n health care workers let's pray before going to health care facilities.

[@khanyincube8937]

You are right but we must agree that negligence is huge with the public hospitals.

[@borwa5517]

Yoh! My heart bleeds for Nosiphiwo. We really need to better our health care system. Peace and blessings to both ladies.

[@regaogetswechuene9591]

My heart bleeds for these women. My heart bleeds even more for Nosiphiwo. I am so sorry for the loss of your Siyamthanda. I couldn't stop crying. I can't even imagine the pain you ladies went and continue to go through.

[@Kruzanzinza]

@Relebogile 🎊 congratulations for 100k subscribers. Secondly as someone battling fertility am shattered to say the least at the guests experience, am sorry and may you find peace and justice. Love from 🇰🇪 Kenya

[@kingnandi_sa]

The level of negligence and non existent service is absolutely revolting and embarrassing!!! How dare these medical staff treat human beings like this, if you don't love and have respect for your job then don't do it and save people these kind of situations shame on them!!

I want to cry for Siyamthanda

Oh my lord this is not okay honestly, our Government system is failing honestly this is not okay really 😔 😢

[@nokuthulambatha3707]

I could relate to Nosiphiwe incident, the very same thing happened to my baby body. He got lung 🫁infection because he 💩inside and it affected his lungs. With me the doctors at Bheki Mlangeni were very professional within 2days they infection was cleared and I could take my boy home. Sorry for what you had to go through nosphiwe

[@fikilesiwela7840]

I can't even hold my tears, this is painfull

[@LethoHali]

This reminds me so much of an episode of “I’ve been through the most” where this lady joined satanism and had to kill newborns in hospitals 💔💔💔😭. Uteruses must be worth the price. So very evil! So very scary! So very painful!

[@nondumisobuthelezi3964]

I was sobbing the entire time, especially for Nosphiwo. The passing of the baby is also their fault, they know that a baby can poop if left so long in the womb while she's in labor. Waiting for hours for an ambulance?? I know a story of a lady that I found at a birthing clinic, she was also waiting for the ambulance and the baby had already pooped, no one was bothered by that. My mother and I were who was there in support of a our sister who was giving birth had to be the ones calling in favors from ward councillors in the area to intervene and get an ambulance to the clinic, even then the ambulance still delayed.

[@nomsazwane3505]

[@yolokazimbutsi11]

Women need to unite and do something about this. This will continue to happen if nothing is done about it. What these ladies have lost is so precious and no person deserves such. I'm so sorry that you are going through this everyday and no one has been held accountable. My ❤ is shattered.

[@Nokss87]

We really should....we vote for these leaders who treat us like this!

[@noxmagejana]

I wish this does not just end as a thought or a comment. These people need to pay!💔😭

[@yolokazimbutsi11]

I don't want it to end here. We've used social media platforms as a place to lament for so long yet nothing gets fixed. We don't implement any moves unless it's perhaps a close relative,child, sibling or a parent. The fact remains that the victims are still something and somebody important to the people who closely know them. Just because today it's not you doesn't mean it won't happen to you if you don't make efforts to prevent it's perpetuation. We need to be more comfortable challenging things that don't make us sleep better at night. We owe nothing to nobody. We pay for the services we are entitled to.

I was just glad i survived and atleast i still have the 1 tube to try with .

[@eyethumkumla]

What an emotional episode 🥺🥺🥺💔💔so heartbreaking!

[@lesegomoropa556]

I empathise with these women. However this episode highlighted the importance of reading and understanding any document before you sign. Signing a consent form implies that you fully understand what procedures will be performed and why as well as the risks, therefore it’ll be difficult to prove malpractice when you have given consent. And secondly, women need to recognise that even a simple pregnancy has the potential for serious complications and should not be taken lightly. The first woman may have bled, and the second one seemingly had infection of the womb that she unfortunately warranted a hysterectomy. It’s rare but it happens. However if there really was malpractice then they should persue legal action against and will be compensated. It’s within their right.

[@92Kandee]

Although you are correct; I feel doctors also need to do better in explaining these medical terms to their patients, as a good majority of South Africans do not fully understand English. We have 11, if not 12 official languages in the country, and these consent forms need to be written in other languages as well and not just English & Afrikaans. This is the biggest problem when signing any sort of forms. Some people in the medical field, firstly do not seem to care about their patients and seem to be in a rush, just to complete their duties. They are rude and do no bother to explain these different situations to patients and expectant mothers. We see in both cases that the medical practitioners were caught in lies. There is a level of malpractice that took place here.

[@louisawambui4475]

At the height of labour, its hard for someone to comprehend anything else apart from the pain. It can be argued they were not in their right state of mind.

[@shaalemogale7824]

This is so heartbreaking. 😭💔

This is so heartbreaking, so evil! My question is, what do they do with the uterus?...it cant be that so many women (i know stories from other provinces so its not just GP & they are targeting 1st time mothers) loose their uterus under these dodgy circumstances & its just matter of negligence.....something deeper is happening here

[@siphiwetshilidzi7473]

[@nomdakazana09]

Its really hurtful when these things are done by women to other fellow women😭😭 its very painful💔 first of all nje, a woman should be at bed rest for 4-6 hours post C/S😢 You can't tell a woman to walk, on her own even🤦, its really wrong, I won't even go into detail with not explaining to mom in detail what was happening💔

[@boitumelomotaung9898]

Having an advocate with you when you're in labor is so important. Women go through so much because we dont have someone to fight for us, ask questions and request reasons for the many things that are done to us. Its heartbreaking! The negligence that happens in hospitals is disgusting 😭😭😭💔

[@ItsOnlyJunie]

Absolutely 😪😪

[@muge1928]

That's why it's important for women to become their own advocates and to discuss "birth plans", pregnancy etc with their support person/family, and on top of that make sure to do your research. When it comes to pregnancy and childbirth the "experts" don't know everything, always make sure they give you all the information you need to make the best decision for yourself.

[@patriciatshitake3187]

that's true hey but public hospitals differ from private at private hospitals a family member or partner can be there before and after the delivery until they see the both of u are okay and then they go.in most public hospitals the staff is even quick to say it's not visiting hours.they can even tell you as the husband your not not allowed in.

I stayed the whole week at Edenvale with no one telling me what was happening except that doctors were not available. From Monday to Friday. First I went Sunday they told me I am very far I should go back home. I didn't sleep at all. Went back Monday morning they asked me to sit on a bench and I was there the whole day. Wasn't officially admitted. Friday the doctor came and my husband was told to sign the consent forms very fast because they needed to take the baby out quickly because there was bo heart beat he'd already pooped in my tummy. But God chose to save my baby. Horrible things we go through in these hospitals 😢
