Sy s\u00ea in \u2019n stadium het sy \u2019n kind van Gqberha ingeneem en versorg. <\/p>\n<p>Kapot s\u00ea sy kry soms diep in die nag oproepe van die departement wat haar vra om in te gryp. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cDis nou vir kinders wat op straat woon, wat uit hul ouers se sorg verwyder is omdat hulle mishandel word en wie se ouers nie vir hulle kans sien nie omdat hulle siek is.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Volgens Kapot is een van die kinders wat sy tans versorg, twee jaar gelede alleen en sonder enige toesig in \u2019n hok in Zwelethemba aangetref. <\/p>\n<p>Sy was maar \u2019n paar maande oud. <\/p>\n<p>Kapot s\u00ea die kind was in \u2019n slegte toestand en het aanhoudend gehuil.<\/p>\n<p>Kapot s\u00ea verlede jaar het sy \u2019n vyf maande oue MIV-positiewe seuntjie ingeneem wat by die dood omgedraai het omdat hy nie medikasie ontvang het nie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDokters het geveg om sy lewe. Hy was brandmaer en kon nie eens huil nie. Wanneer hy wou huil, het daar net stilweg \u2019n traan oor sy een wang gevloei.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEk het op \u2019n Donderdag hospitaal toe gegaan om hom te gaan haal. Hy is nou \u2019n jaar oud en is baie meer gesond omdat hy gereeld mediese behandeling ontvang.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Volgens Kapot het sy ook \u2019n tienjarige seun en sy vierjarige suster wat op straat gewoon het, in haar sorg. Sy s\u00ea die kinders is van Worcester, maar is in De Doorns gevind. <\/p>\n<p>Kapot s\u00ea sy word veral in Desember oorval met versoeke om kinders in te neem omdat die ouers fees vier, die kinders verwaarloos en hulle dan mishandel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDie kinders wat ek al hier ingeneem het, wissel van pasgeborenes tot 14 jaar oud.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ronel Pienaar, nog \u2019n veiligheidsouer, s\u00ea sy versorg tans twee kinders. Een van hulle is \u2019n jaar en vier maande oud. Volgens Pienaar was die kind maar twee maande oud toe sy in haar sorg geplaas is omdat haar ma \u2019n drankprobleem het. Sy versorg ook tans \u2019n agtjarige meisie wat bipol\u00ear is. <\/p>\n<p>Kapot s\u00ea op haar beurt hulle het tans \u2019n plek in gedagte waar hulle die kinder- en jeugsorgsentrum wil inrig, maar die plek kort nog baie werk. Volgens haar is onder meer die toilette en krane buite werking. Daar is ook nie elektrisiteit nie.<\/p>\n<p>Voorts benodig hulle onder meer beddegoed, kosvoorraad, klere en ander benodigdhede vir die kinders. \u201cOns soek enigiets wat sal help om hierdie kinders se lewensomstandighede te verbeter.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Sy s\u00ea indien hulle die plek ingerig kry, sak hulle tot 30 kinders op \u2019n keer daar kan huisves. <\/p>\n<p>Volgens Kapot word \u2019n debutantebal op 25 Oktober in die Worcester-stadsaal gehou. Die opbrengs van die kaartjieverkope gaan gebruik word om die beoogde perseel op te knap. <\/p>\n<p>Kaartjies kos R100 per persoon en is beskikbaar by Kapot (072 934 3217) en Pienaar (079 730 5288).
