As many of you may now know, Maurita was involved in an accident over the weekend. She has sustained some pretty nasty injuries, and will be in hospital for the next few weeks, we think. I saw her this afternoon, and she was awake, and talking, although weak and in pain. she will be ok, but I think it will be a long road. In the meantime, I will blog as i get updates on her progress. She is still in ICU as I write, but the nurse was hopeful that she will be moving to a regular ward tomorrow, and can be moved from Worcester to Constantiaberg hospital, Cape Town, by the end of the week if all goes well. She can only receive family visitors at the moment, and is unable to receive gifts at the hospital, but this may change once she has changed wards and is out of Intensive care.
As soon as I have more information, I will blog, and Trevor, one of our colleagues, will pass on a little update via SMS for those of you who have left us your cell phone details.
Many thanks to all of you for the overwhelming contact of care, concern and love, and thank you for all the offers of practical help: it is at times like this we realise how blessed we are to have such wonderful volunteers and friends.
