    Some people are critising Trevor for not buying her grandmother a house and new furniture. Just to let you know, if you read Trevor's book Born a Crime, Trevor explains that gogo doesn't want her furniture refurbished and certainly she doesn't want to be moved. And that applies to all our South African gogo's actually, the furniture and the house is part of them, they don't define success by flashy things but are content with life and memories!

      At age 91, why would she wish to move away from her community, away from the life she built and held onto despite all the hardships? I’m sure he does other things to make his gogo’s life easier, gifts that do not disrespect her accomplishments. Their affection for each other is very evident!

Obviously I admire Trevor as well, but Patricia Noah is a legend! I would honestly kneel if I ever met her. She went through so much and never lost her spirit. She raised a biracial child in a racist society, bringing him up to be a bright, intelligent and compassionate human! I am so in awe of both Gogo and Patricia ❤❤❤😍

The consequence is that he will have relationship problems, but he will be a great father.(So Trevaa, start healing by disposing the leapard and get yourself a German sherpard)
