Die vrou wat onlangs gesien het hoe \u2019n man in Blackheath verdrink, s\u00ea sy het kort voor die voorval \u2019n droom gehad oor wat gaan gebeur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jannie Mars het verdrink kort nadat hy \u2019n vrou gehelp het om haar vasgekeerde motor tydens die onlangs storms uit die water te kry. Mars se familie het \u2019n kruis met sy naam daarop by die toneel van sy onverwagse en tragiese sterfte opgerig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Malende water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Denisia Ruiters, wat binne stap-afstand van die toneel werk, s\u00ea sy het een aand voor die voorval \u2019n droom gehad waarin sy baie water gesien het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk het die malende water gesien en kon hoor hoe ek skree en gil. Die volgende oggend het ek my dogter van die droom vertel en sy het ges\u00ea ek moet bid en ek het dit gedoen. Die oggend van die voorval het alles omtrent net so uitgespeel,\u201d s\u00ea Ruiters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

N\u00e1 die voorval<\/a> kan sy wat gebeur het, nie uit haar kop kry nie. \u201cEk moet elke dag daar verbystap onderweg werk toe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie dokter het vir my kalmeerpille voorgeskryf, want die gebeure speel oor en oor in my kop af. Ek dink dit sal vir ewig by my bly,\u201d s\u00ea Ruiters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy het so 06:00 die noodlottige oggend in Blackheath, waar sy by \u2019n sekerheidsmaatskappy werk, aangekom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie paaie was oorspoel en ons kon nie deurkom nie. Ek het \u2019n agtergrond in lewensredding en ek weet \u2019n mens kan nie water vertrou nie, veral as jy nie kan sien wat onder aangaan nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\u201cTerwyl ons daar gewag het, het \u2019n verkeersman ook motoriste gewaarsku om nie die water aan te durf nie. Hy het ges\u00ea enigiemand wat probeer deurgaan, doen dit op eie risiko,\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTerwyl ons daar gewag het, het \u2019n verkeersman ook motoriste gewaarsku om nie die water aan te durf nie. Hy het ges\u00ea enigiemand wat probeer deurgaan, doen dit op eie risiko,\u201d s\u00ea Ruiters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nog moeilikheid<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Baie mense het nie gehoor gegee nie en die water aangedurf. \u201c\u2019n Vrou in \u2019n swart Polo het ander motors gevolg en was kort voor lank in die moeilikheid. Ons wou haar nog keer, maar sy het begin dryf. Ek het die mans wat rondgestaan het gevra om te gaan help, maar niemand wou nie. Die oorledene het aangestap gekom en hy was die eerste mens wat aangebied het om die vrou te help,\u201d s\u00ea Ruiters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy s\u00ea nadat die vrou gehelp is, het Mars begin aanstap. \u201cEk het hom nog gevra om nie te stap nie, maar hy het net aangestap. Ek werk langs daai pad en ken die pad. Ek het gegil en geroep en die volgende oomblik het hy in die water geval. Ek het so te kere gegaan dat my foon uit my hand uit geval het en ek daarop getrap het. \u2019n Man wat by \u2019n swembadvervaardigingsplek daar naby werk wou induik, maar die water was te woes. Ek het so magteloos gevoel,\u201d s\u00ea sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Ruiters gaan haar hart uit na die vrou van die oorledene. \u201cEk het ook my man aan die dood afgestaan. In my geval het hy nierprobleme gehad en ons kon darem sy dood sien kom. Ek kan net dink hoe Mars se vrou voel, wat haar man die oggend op pad werk toe gegroet het en hom nie weer gesien het nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Begrafnisdiens vir Mars word Saterdag omstreeks 07:00 by sy huis in Wesbank gehou<\/p>\n\n\n\n
