Mushiwa Madala Sithole was found in Vosman in Witbank in September. He has since passed away.The family of a displaced elderly man is being sought by a Witbank woman who helped ensure he was cared for before he died of complications from a brain tumour.
Scheepers, who at the time did not even know Sithole’s name, rushed him to the Witbank Hospital. There, they were turned away too as, without Sithole detailing whether there was anything wrong with him, the hospital said it could not help. During this time, Sithole became part of their family, with Ngwenya’s children celebrating him as the grandfather they did not have.
As the days turned into weeks, and the weeks into months, Sithole grew closer with the local community and the family. He celebrated the birthday of one of the children and even attended the local church. “He kept saying that his son visited him all the time and he kept wondering why his son had not come over since he had been there,” Scheepers said.
