Vandag is dag 40 van Hugo Hattingh (39) van Wellington se herstelpad n\u00e1 hy erge brandwonde opgedoen in \u2018n fratsongeluk. Di\u00e9 skeepskaptein is op 7 Julie ernstig beseer in \u2018n ontploffing op \u2018n katamaran waarop hy aan die Thaise ooskus gewerk het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die ongeluk het plaasgevind \u2019n week voordat Hugo terug Suid-Afrika toe sou vlieg om sy pasgebore seuntjie, Luca, te ontmoet. Hugo se lewensmaat het vroe\u00ebr na Suid-Afrika teruggekeer vir die bevalling. Dit het egter later gebeur as verwag en Hugo is terug Thailand toe vir werk. Luca is uiteindelik op 6 Junie in \u2019n Paarlse hospitaal verwelkom en is nou nege weke oud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Hugo se pa, Chris Hattingh, gaan dit “bo verwagting” goed met sy seun en sterk hy elke dag aan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alhoewel Hugo sterk staan en positief is, is die kanse skraal dat hy binnekort na Suid-Afrika sal kan terugkeer, omdat die kostes astronomiese is, het Chris verduidelik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit sal glo meer as R600 000 kos om Hugo met ‘n vliegtuig, tesame met ‘n dokter en verple\u00ebr wat op hierdie stadium vereis word, na Suid-Afrika te bring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Om kostes te bespaar, gaan Hugo heel moontlik in die Hua Hin-hospitaal aansterk, totdat hy met ‘n kommersi\u00eble vlug huis toe kan kom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Chris gaan sy seun, wat skade aan sy spierweefsel opgedoen het, sowat elke derde dag teater toe om dooie weefsel te verwyder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Netwerk24<\/em> berig<\/a> dat Hugo al twee operasies aan sy bene en drie aan sy rug ondergaan het en dat hy steeds baie pyn het, veral wanneer sy verbande geruil moet word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ten spyte van die pyn is Hugo vasberade om spoedig te herstel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy pa het ges\u00ea dat hy gereeld fisioterapie ontvang en selfs onlangs ‘n paar tree kon gee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hugo het gister (14 Augustus) met die hulp van mediese personeel, uit sy hospitaalbed opgestaan. Hy kon dit al drie keer regkry om self orent te kom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Chris ry sy seun se emosies wipplank weens die erge pyn waarin hy verkeer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die ongeluk het sowat 300km oos van Bangkok plaasgevind toe daar brandstof in die enjingkajuit gemors het. Die dampe het vlamgevat en \u2019n ontploffing veroorsaak, met die vlamme wat temperature van tussen 1800\u00b0C tot 2200\u00b0C bereik het, het Chris vroe\u00ebr aan die Paarl Post<\/em> ges\u00ea<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die brandstof is glo n\u00e1 die mors skoongemaak, maar daar het gevaarlike dampe agtergebly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToe Hugo die kajuit binnegaan om aan die kragopwekker te werk, het die petroldampe vlamgevat en \u2019n ontploffing veroorsaak,\u201d het Chris ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hugo het \u2019n nylonkortbroek aangehad en die intense hitte van die ontploffing het sy klere en hare verskroei. Dit het ook ernstige interne beserings veroorsaak, insluitend skade aan sy ingewande, niere, longe en hart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy familie besoek hom om die beurt, met sy suster wat permanent langs sy bed waak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hoewel Hugo nog nie sy babaseuntjie ontmoet het nie, praat hy gereeld met hom oor die selfoon sodat Luca sy stem kan leer ken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Netwerk24<\/em> berig<\/a> dat Hugo se lewensmaat en Luca nie onmiddellik Thailand toe sal gaan nie, omdat hy nie wil h\u00ea hulle moet hom in die toestand sien waarin hy nou is nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hugo se \u2019n negejarige seun, Aydin, uit ‘n vorige verhouding, het hom onlangs in die hospitaal besoek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hattingh is \u2019n ervare skipper wat klein bote, insluitend seiljagte en katamarans, oor die w\u00eareld heen vervoer. Hy het sy eie onderneming in Thailand waar hy onder meer boottoere met sy twee bote doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
