The spirit of humbleness in Nontombi is amazing hey. Her approach of issues and life nje. She was born with that gift. She is such a blessing.

Gogo Nontombi is such a force to be reckoned with. From a young age, she has been using her voice and lived experience as advocacy. ❤️

Sadie was 100 % genuine. I would have loved to hear more realistic experiences from Nontombi. It came off as toxic positivity

@pearlsosibo5854 2 жыл бұрын

Definitely exaggerated positivity and or maturity, highly doubt a 10 year old would have processed the situation the way she discribed

@mrsG488 Жыл бұрын

My observation has been that the earlier you disclose the better...10 years or earlier depending on the childs development is the best timing. The teenage stage is the worst Disclaimer...no evidence just an observation

😢 Sadie's way of finding out was not cool at all. As a teenager and already so strong to live through the whole school trip with knowing your results and still manages to control how your friends sees you in that moment. Goodoes to you sis.

@sizakelediya4080 3 жыл бұрын

Your show is beautiful Relebogile it's open our eyes to so many things that Africans we shy away from. I understand the position of the parents on not telling as no one prepare you for being positive plus coming from the culture of not knowing to be open and transparent but that it doesn't take away the heartbreak I have on what both ladies found out. I pray that as they grow they see that hiv is part of their lives but it doesn't define them they can be whatever they want tobe. What they doing is remarkable, God bless them abundantly.

Oh black child it's praising God through amadlozi. And believing in amadlozi does not mean you'll be a witch. You are black and this is what our people believed in before colonization.

We dont praise amadlozi any more than we praise living people. We acknowledge amadlozi. Our prayers go to God.
