Hy sou heel waarskynlik nou al langer as sy ma gewees het en \u2019n groter nommer skoen gedra het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00f3 s\u00ea Herman Odendaal (12) se ma, Arina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit was op Maandag 19 Julie \u2019n jaar sedert Herman sy eie lewe in hul huis in Kestell geneem het nadat hy geruime tyd geboelie is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy dood voel steeds onwerklik, s\u00ea sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk dink nie \u2019n mens kom ooit regtig oor of deur so iets nie. Jy moet maar net aangaan. Jy moet dit maar net een dag op \u2019n slag vat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEen dag gaan dit beter en die volgende dag gaan dit baie sleg. Dan moet jy maar net weer opstaan. Dis maar al.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arina s\u00ea mense se ondersteuning en gebede dra hul gesin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit is vir hulle baie belangrik om sy nagedagtenis lewend te hou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns maak \u2019n punt daarvan om baie van hom te praat. Ek dink dit is wat ons almal staande hou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns sal byvoorbeeld \u2019n fliek of \u2019n storie kyk of deur \u2019n boek blaai, en dan sal ek s\u00ea \u2018Boeta sou nou van di\u00e9 kar gehou het\u2019 of \u2018hy sou nou van di\u00e9 fliek gehou het\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hulle wonder gereeld wat Herman oor iets sou s\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arina en haar man, Johan, het ook \u2019n dogter, Jo-Ri (15).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arina s\u00ea Jo-Ri het fotografie begin beoefen en dit gaan met haar goed. Sy glo Herman sou baie trots op sy suster gewees het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy is eintlik net wonderlik. Sy help ons baie. Ek dink sy het \u2019n groter begrip vir ander mense se seer, so sy maak \u2019n punt daarvan om altyd ander te probeer help.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die herdenking van Herman se dood was vir die gesin \u2019n verskriklike dag. Hulle het baie oor hom gepraat en hulself ingedink hoe dit sou wees as hy nog met hulle was, s\u00ea Arina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

N\u00e1 Herman se dood het sy \u2019n bewusmakingsveldtog teen afknouery begin en die Facebook\u00ad-blad Herman\u2019s Heroes gestig.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Danksy di\u00e9 projek is plakkate teen afknouery reeds by drie skole opgesit. Sy wil later ook praatjies lewer.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die terugvoering op die veldtog is glo baie goed, en mense s\u00ea die plakkate maak \u2019n verskil.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie kinders kom en s\u00ea vir die onderwysers wanneer hulle meen hulle word afgeknou.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arina maan ouers om met hul kinders te praat, na hulle te luister en na hul gedrag op te let.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSlaan ag op jou kind se gedrag, want dis die klein goedjies wat jy n\u00e1 die tyd agterkom.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy s\u00ea kinders moet enigiets met hul ouers kan bespreek, en ouers moet nooit iets as \u201csommer net nonsens\u201d afmaak nie.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
