Lumuthi wenza lendoda isebenze gadalala esebenzela unina yedwa.
Kwakumnyama ebusweni benkawu, le ndoda elilemnyaka engamatshumi amathathu lasithuba (36) yayingakaze inanzeleli ukuthi sonke leso isikhathi ewondla unina yedwa kwakungasimusa wodwa, wayefuqwa yimithi unina amhambela yona enyangeni.
Kwababuhlungu kwaphinda kwabanzima ukukholwa ukuthi unina omzalayo engamgangela ngaloluhlobo.

Ubuthongo bona wayengasabuquthi njengoba wayeginqa okwesimanga ebusuku kwezinye izikhathi inyawo zakhe zazisiba buhlungu aze ehluleke lokuhamba.
“Ekuqaleni ubabakazi wami wayecabangela ukuthi ukufa kwamama akungiphathanga kuhle njengoba sasisondelene kangako,” kutsho undoda.
Kodwa lalapho esekwamukele ukufa kukanina akubanga lomehluko ekuphileni kwakhe, wayegulagula kokuphela.
Kuthe sekunzima waqala ukuya kubodokotela abafika bamnika amaphilisi kodwa awamncedanga. Ubabakazi wamcebisa ukuba bayebona isangoma ngoba ukugula kwakhe kwasekukubi kakhulu.
Wahamba esangomeni saseWindmill Park esidume kakhulu kuleyondawo, safika esamtshela ukuba wafakelwa ikorobela kodwa asichazanga ukuba ngubani.
Njengazonke ingane akazange acabangele unina wacabangela umfazi owayezale laye ingane.
“Ngambuza ngakho kodwa wakhanya edidekile engazi lokuthi ngikhuluma ngani, waphika, kodwa angizange ngamkholwa mina” kuchasisa lundoda.
Isangoma samnika imithi yokuhlanza kodwa ayisebenzanga.
Njengendoda eyayisizimisele njalo idinga usizo ngokuphazima kwemeso wasuka wayahlolwa kwesinye isangoma esafika samtshela udaba olutshaqisayo.
Lesisangoma asigudlanga iguma, samvezela kwabasobala samtshela ukuba ngunina owamfakela ikorobela. Sathi sona isangoma unina wayengafuni athathe efuna ukuba asebenzela yena yedwa impilo yakhe yonke.
“Kubuhlungu ngoba ngalahlekelwa zintombi ezilungileyo ezinengi isizatho singumama,” kutsho ujaha.
Omunye wentombi akewathandana laye wamtshela ukuba wayephatha unina sengathi ngumkakhe njengoba wayenikeza unina umholo wakhe phose ingxenye yawo wonke. Uthi wayelokuthatheka okwedlulisileyo nxa kufika ekondleni unina.
Isangoma samvezela kwasobala ukuba sekungabanzima ukuthi ikhitshwe ikorobela leyo njengoba eseleminyaka ephila layo.
