SA's most famous babies - the 'Tembisa 10' - are in an undisclosed hospital in Pretoria 'fighting for their lives'.

The babies' grandmother, identified in the family's statement as a “very happy” Mama Margaret Tsotetsi, sat in the kitchen with other children who were playing in the house.

Asked whether they have prepared a room for the decuplets, she said that due to their culture and given the sensitivity of the pregnancy, they could only do so after they arrive home. “We speak to her through the phone, she sounds like she’s doing well. This had nothing to do with concoctions, this was just a miracle,” she said.

“I feel blessed and I am happy. I am happy for the support that I am getting. It is a very unique situation. They are premature, they are still incubated. Very small as you can think — 10 children in one womb that normally carries one baby.

I would love to congratulate the parents of the Thembisa 10 and wish all 10 of them to pull through and make it, if at all possible they do exist.

May they all live and be in good health 🙏🏾

Baloyi la loya lena mxm.

It good to call a black child tembisa 10 and lie to us. White media you must pay for this or are you doing this to a black child because you don't have any information about her?

10 BABIES = 10 SASSA GRANTS 😆

What are editors doing these days. Head news are disaster everyday

Leave the mastermind piet to run his story. Please. Focus on praising Eskom CEO and the minister of public Enterprise, they doing a great job, isn't it?

Haibo...

Full of doubts. There might be theft for collection of children to reach 10. This journalism has been ar the poorest level, internation disgrace, no matter how anyone justify the reporting. Not this way in this era, mxm, ndi maţungu ngoho.

insightfactor pietrampedi

Did PietRampedi tell you that ?

Now that u have established the babies were born, u still running a negative narrative to discredit it all. Pathetic i must tell u

Because of loadshedding. Cruel government nxmmmm

the father said they were all doing well yesterday.🤥

Why cant these media houses leave the babies alone. It has been confirmed they exist lets give the family space.

Lwa Loya lona sies

Misleading people as usual you’re so desperate to report this story 🤣🤣🤣 leave this one to pietrampedi

May they all survive with the grace of God. ..

Fighting for their lives like really now, nxa!!!

How true is that? lie.

I can see where is this going. Yesterday they were doing well, jikijiki......hayikhona kudlaliwe ngathi 😫

Sis maan le baloi.....

You mean FIGHTING TO STAY ALIVE? My prayers are them and their parents

Admin unamanga maan🙄

Question for medical Twitter. '5 born naturally and 5 through c section'. Is this possible?

Father God be with them and keep them safe 🙏🏾

2 babies were in the wrong tube but that was sorted. Come on idiots. That's a buis swangerskap. Your tube gets removed with the embryos! This is a diversion by govt probably. Look put for the bigger picture. DIVERSIONS created to distract attention from the other BS going on.

For all we know Timeslive could be trying to catch up in terms of ratings. Afterrall they were also part of the media which told us Benni was a Bafana coach

ALL BS!! They were ALL alive and doing VERY WELL 2 days go! The kamma spokesperson put on Twitter asking for money donations then soon after calling his bs deleted the message. Media is gullible & Piet a liar! Every media that published a 'hearsay' story, with NO PROOF is dumb!

We don't want speculation from an aunt we want to hear from the parents tank you

Here you go South African papers again trying to sow discord between family members. Going behind the backs of parents & the official means of communication they established. It is for this very reason that they opted for media blackout on this.

Y'all are disgusting, because you did not know about them, let alone being tipped as to where they're, now you come with this headline? Y'all aren't newsrooms but spies.

No wonder you are left in the dark. Negative headline! Le tla ba bona ko crèche after 2 years

What is fighting for their life?

kabelodick

hlatseentle

You're lying guys! Piet must not comment on these malicious lies. How low can you stoop. Not even a close family member is allowed there

That is why Piet Rampedi kept this story away from ThumaMinaMediaGroup, yall are vultures looking to sell papers at all cost, you are not considerate of the family and their feelings

The mother and father of this 10 babies,must make all this media platforms whom keep reporting misleading reports against their kids their money making scheme.the must consider taking legal actions against them including you TimeLive

Hoax

The fact that the GovernmentZA didn't even know where they were means that they didn't even deploy the best Doctors in SA when the world is watching, what a disgrace

You see.. Now you want to bring bad luck.. That's why pietrampedi had to hide this from you guys

Now that's not the great news I was anticipating about the whole story

Fighting for their lives? Don't lie

I am afraid they have all died due to the blackout

Cc HealthZA. Lies again from Government
