Daughter relays father’s last days during Hammanskraal cholera outbreak

Maria Mashiane said they took her father to the clinic and on the way his blood pressure increased significantly. “Upon our arrival at the hospital, they administered a drip which momentarily stabilised him, allowing for his return home. He was not eating and unable to do anything. Just after a week, we called an ambulance that took him to hospital where they said they are waiting for the results,” said Mashiane.
