Hi m Ivy. I'd love to thank u so much for the love n prayers God bless each one of u 🥺❤
Your interview was great to watch, you articulated yourself so well and you're beyond beautiful! I'm sorry for all that you've been through and I wish you well going forward, you have a beautiful aura ❤
Hey Thato, it's Rendani from Parkview. Funny enough D and I are in Polokwane now as well. I'm so glad you are going better 💕 let's catch up when you have the time 🤗
May God continue to bless you sister 🙏🏽. Your journey has been rough and painful, but we thank God that He has kept you and your loved ones safe.
Sending you hugs all the way from Zimbabwe 🥰🥰
Love n light to u n ur son 💛 💓, you are so beautiful, loved u d first day I saw ur TikTok ..
Whoever did her facial reconstruction is very powerful. I don't even see any scar there. She's absolutely beautiful
Shout out to the nurse who went above and beyond her call of duty.The true definition of a nurse well done to you.
Any man who takes you away from your child, especially when the child needs you most, is not worth any more of your time. Wow
Yes, he is not of your time
100%
Imagine going on a trip and they tell you to leave ur luggage. You cannot seperate a mother and her kids?
The doctors stitching you up while you got glasses and all dirt and a nurse realizing that wow, it just shows that nurses need respect
Everything went wrong on your wedding day because you had just married a wrong man. You are beautiful and strong. May God carry u and your kids, everyday.
Very true I wish the lord to be with her to find a right person this time around because she still want to be married but I believe she is so strong she doesn't need a Man I see a very strong human being right here just got in love with a loose who does this, he was just failing to even fake it until she at least become OK. Then move on. Imagine someone nearly die because of you and you continue killing them more. There are people who are sick and they want everyone to become sick just like them. Devorcing someone because they are a problem of such it is just crazy.
Guys let's support her, she has a vlog called 'Ivy says' ❤
Ivy’s uncle had a foresight about this accident but didn’t really know. It’s also an elderly wisdom that made him say “do not travel tonight “.
Ivy you survived for a greater purpose. Sorry for what you and your son endured. I pray that both of you be completely healed.
Why is no one appreciating the kind n supportive nurse 😇 who kept her updated when everyone else was ducking🥺 Ivy you are so blessed with the best family n like your son said…God loves you
I’m glad you and your son are alive so many red flags hospital failed her . .
It within her right to know about her health as well as her son
Thanks sbo❤️ So enlightening
Psychiatrist told her her husband doesn’t love her very unprofessional.
I’m glad Cc you are pushing hard you matter . All the best to you and your son .
May God heal both of you and we thank God for everything just accept yourself and the situation you are in and let God do the rest . You are beautiful.
Her story is so touching, May the Lord bring her complete healing and strength.
Yes, God is able🙏🙌
May the good Lord give you strength if God allowed all this to happen to you know that He is by your side commit yourself to God He will make a way for you
She looks like Dj Zinhle.. She is beautiful and strong.. Sending love and hugs😍❤️
This was hard to finish 🥺
I love how supportive your family is.
Relebogile I love how you allow people to tell their stories. You are the only journalist I've seen do that. It's so refreshing. You ask questions to clarify so we as viewers get the whole picture3 but you never lead the guest. People keep saying you're the South African Oprah, please! You're much better than that.
I could not agree any further.
Ousi Lebo is WAY waaaaayyyyy better than her.
I would like to applaud you sis Relebogile for the work you do. I also pray that you are taking good care of your mental health because listening to people's stories and their traumas can be so overwhelming. 😩. I wish you fruitful journey sisi❤️
What a strong woman. Prayers for your son 💛
Can we talk about how gorgeous she is though 🥺😭❤️
Absolutely stunning!
I dnt knw why I see lerato kganyago... Girl looks like her she's beautiful
Her family is such a fantastic support structure. From her parents to the uncle, to the grandmother etc. She and her children are loved dearly. Ivy is a true mbokodo
This made me tear up. I see strength, I see resilience and the power of God. This is inspirational
i’m sorry but i’d blame him for the accident too, because her uncle said not to travel that day but he forced them. Love & light to you and your family Ivy!🕯🤍
African man. He marries you hez done, no one can tell him anything. I blame him too. He disrespected her elders and caused soooo much pain.
Its like he was sacrificing with them the way he act no
As someone who is interested in behavioral optometry and psychology, this story touched me deeply…
I look forward to these everyday. More committed to this than my PhD. Thank you for sharing. I use some of these for my classes.
Bathong Martha 😂😂
😹😭
😂😂😂 bathong wena you need help
I feel like her ex husband knew exactly what was going to happen,i might be wrong but something just doesn’t add up on ex hubby’s behavior,,
You beautiful my sister may you and the lil boy continue to heal🥰
I honestly think Ivy is so gorgeous. I couldn’t stop thinking how beautiful she is throughout the video. Sending strength and love mama.❤️🫶🏼
Yesterday I watched the story of the woman who suffered six miscarriage's. She related how she felt LONELY and depressed especially after her first miscarriage. My question was, how do you feel LONELY when you have just gotten married? Aren't spouses supposed to play some emotional role to contribute to your wellness? She also added that she consented to having babies because her husband was already "putting so much on the table" not because she was ready. uhmm
Today, this lovely woman also relates her horrific ordeal which left her severely injured. She mentions that even before her full recovery , her husband wanted another child chiefly because: "she is married to him." He proved to be sadly indifferent to her condition.
We need to rethink the idea of marriage. This institution continues to endorse patriarchal masculinity and relegates women to slaves , vessels if not refugees.
As someone who has miscarried, I can attest to what she said. The journey is pretty lonely even with maximum support.
Second to that, society including partners have a bad habit of being able saying "Oh please, you're still fresh, try again" as if it's that easy. They keep presurizing a person to try again. I had to cut off a person who said the same to me. We need to revisit the idea of holding space for someone be it in marriage or not
men and emotions, some men's esp african ones heart you would swear are made or rocks, so painful
@@chiedzalight.9656 totally agree with you, especially re: holding space for people to choose marriage for themselves and, once they're in it, letting people design the kind of marriage that works for them.
She looks like DJ Zinhle🥵🥵😍😍😍
I was thinking Lerato Kganyago
Me to I see a mix of both Dj Zinhle n Lerato she's beautiful ❤️
That's true hey ... very beautiful 😍
Lebo you handling the interviews like the pro that you are!!
Ivy, claim RAF sesi. I’m sorry for what happened to you. You looking more beautiful and you are strong.
This is so so sad, m just glad she managed to work through this very dark period in her life.
Her ex husband was just cruel and I'm sensing that he was just jealous of her, he was supposed to be there for her I mean he's the one who caused this.
Most men are selfish. There’s no for better or worse.
@@moe_ramz He really is selfish just wish that God will give her strength and help her pull through this..
This really hurt me, he was supposed to be there for her.
I think im too traditional... i hope this had no "chemical foul play"
You are strong and beautiful... and midst of it all God keeps reminding us that hes above all... no one can be against us wt God on our side.
So this man ruins her and her sons life and just drops them like hot potatoes, what an evil man. I pray they both heal and that God blesses them abundantly.
I love the strength she carries and the family support she receives.
What happened to the daughter?
Oh man this is a heartbreaking story 💔 I hope God performs a huge miracle over her son's life
What happened to her is not a coincidence, there's more to this "spiritually". Someone somewhere knows something. God will see her through...
True man. This has something to do with the witchcraft.
Exactly what I thought
I also suspect so as well.. shame this poor lady
I also feel so I mean a day after the wedding and plus the wedding did not go right the uncle also saying no to traveling was almost like something is being revealed to him and now that happens. May the good Lord be with her and may she finds healing and understanding that surpasses human understanding
@@nhlanhlakhumaloh been thinking this
This lady is so strong ❤️ wishing her a future with much love and light with her kids ❤️
This breaks my heart. I'm so sorry that you had to endure such a painful journey. Your light shines do bright. Stay blessed
This story made my tears to just roll down ,I couldn't hold myself .I'm praying for her and her son
Your family is so supportive ❤️,you’re beautiful.Thank God you survived 🙏
The love and support your family have is absolutely amazing! I opened the video to watch but I felt so much pain, and I had to gather courage to watch the whole thing. I am so sorry you and your son had to go through this terrible ordeal. God loves you ❤️. You are a beautiful, strong lady and you will get through this. ❤️❤️
You're so strong Sis, I wish you more strength and you're so beautiful.
I wish that you manage to find your son a school that will cater for his needs.
Love and Light
I pray God heals both her and her son physically and emotionally.
I pray He continues to strengthen her for herself and her babies.
She is so beautiful and graceful❤
She's so beautiful.. I'm so sorry for everything you've gone through.. it'll get better 💘
I am so sorry for everything you went through.
I feel so bad for your son going through the healing stages without his mother.
Always choose your child.
Blessings to that nurse for being so patient and caring.
Love and light to you and son.
Wow your ex husband, I feel like there was a darker side to how everything went about. Everything just felt forced as you said you didn’t even enjoy the wedding. Your husband did something dark, wish you could go “hlola” Yoh hai. God be glory your safe and alive, please continue healing. Your beautiful, don’t even worry about that. Please stay strong. ❤️
That's exactly what I thought, that she probably didn't hlola like that because it's not what they believe in but now everything that happened is suggesting otherwise because Africa is for us Africans. I hope she heals
my thought exactly
Thought the same thing eish!
Exactly my thoughts, sorry for her
Same shem
Such a painful story. Ivy may you rise above all this human complications.
Can't believe that a human being can be this heartless. Stay strong 💪🏼.
I've never been soo touched by an episode before. She's soo beautiful and I applaud her Strength. May God continue to Bless and Heal her. ❤
What a sad story I am in tears and appreciate Ivy so much wishing her and her son all the best, You are still alive for a purpose. I pray and hope that your son's mind will gradually develop and hope you find school for him. May the Lord Almighty continue to strengthen and heal you both.🤗🙏🙏
Trust a man to be SELFISH and want a child under those circumstances. Trust a man to behave like a boy and stay out at night and drink with "the boys" when his wife is literally fighting death. Just trust a man to be a man and put himself first, to make everything about him. Wow. I am so sorry you had to go through what you went through, together with your son. I can't even begin to imagine how hard it must be for you to look forward to the next day. I am glad you're getting your confidence back and I pray God restores you. You are very beautiful and have dreams which you can (and will) still attain. Sending you so much love.
Trust a woman to judge a man by default without hearing his side of the story!
This woman clearly stated she has mental illnessES …. depression, frontal lobe syndrome… and there you go believing everything she is saying without validating the information with collateral history. I rest my case .
The guy is not even here to give his side of the story. He could be drinking as a coping mechanism.. but no , he is a man as SELFISH!
The comment section here has become a feminist pity party where men are bashed from all sides . It is very disturbing . And same judgmental people mention God when God doesn’t want us to judge others.
Such a strong beautiful woman. Not so easy to overcome what you’ve been through. You are a real fighter. God’s got you.
I See So Much Strength In This Beautiful Woman!
What a strong and beautiful lady. God kept you and your son alive for a reason. You are so inspiring 🥺❤️
Her story is so touching.I applaud these woman.May the lord bring complete healing and strength
Sending hugs to her. Hope her and her son fully recover
Just finished watching the entire episode , I am weeeeeeping 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭. 😭I am so sorry my love, that man is a monster.
Queen I admire your strength!!❤❤❤❤❤
A very great show to you Relebogile , I believe people are healed just by being around you. God bless you. Salute 🤜
You are strong and beautiful.... May God bring light and healing🙏🙏
That man wasn't worth it, may God protect you, your children, parents, family and friends.
I'm sorry what you went through and still going through. Ivy though you need to take the antidepressants because depression is real until your Dr tell you to stop them. You are strong and blessed, I'm sure this is hard pill to swallow but you nearly lost your life. God kept save because you haven't finished your purpose. We are all here for a specific purpose and right now as much as might not feel but you living it as someone's life will be saved by your story. Lebo is right you need to forgive him for yourself, it might take time but it will bring more healing to you. I appreciate your transparency and sharing your story. God bring more healing in your life and bring joy to you and your family.
Ivy, thank you for sharing your story. May God continue to bless you and your family. Praise God for your parents. Praise God for the people who were there for you in every way.
I'm sorry for what you went through I thank God for giving you strength...you are beautiful 😍 ❤ strong and you deserve the best
I’m so sorry you had to go through such trauma❤️you are beautiful, you are strong and you are worthy❤️God bless you and your son and your whole family❤️
A very touching story. Continue being strong. We love you ♥️♥️♥️
This was so touching. Thank you for sharing Ivy. ❤
I totally understand what you went through and what you are currently going through cause I also had an accident during December 2019 and doctors can’t help
Me cause they don’t know how bad was the accident and because I don’t have medical aid and lot of money for specialists and everything I’m still suffering from back pain and a severe headaches ,I lost confidence I no longer take pictures like before the accident cause I’ve lost self esteem but after watching this show I guess I’m gonna be much better Thank you for sharing your experience May almighty God keep on protecting and blessing your family I love you ❤️🥺
May God intervene in your case too🙌sending you hugs, love and light 💕💕💕
Love, light and strength to you. 💐
God always shows Himself mighty
You back. You beautiful. You bold. Keep shining honey. ♥️
Wow our own S/African Oprah!!! Lebo you are the best, is there any topic you cannot do...and the empathy/kindness but yet being professional is on another level. God bless you my sister keep it going.🌺🌺🌺🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
You are a very strong lady ivy. All the best thing to you and your family ❤❤
Ur story is so painful my sister but the fact that u are still here and lived to tell ur story really shows that God is not done with u, God will never put u thru it if he hadn't put it in u dat will help u become a conquer. U such an inspiration to some of us who thot we've seen it all. God will definitely heal u and ur son beautiful sis.
And u are spot on about mental health, if only people could be more kind to others,coz u never know wat someone is going thru, u never know when u cud become someone's life saver. Compassion is a trait we shud all posses or learn atleast, I mean the world is just cruel already.
Ivy, thank you so much for sharing your story, most people think depression is attention seeking you’ve given it so much to understand and that’s not easy. I always say people don’t commit suicide they die from suicide because depression is an illness
Wow I love this lady's voice...😍😍🥰
😭😭😭I was in tears the whole time while watching this. My sister, you've been through the most.
I just want you to know that everything happens for a reason, God truly has a greater purpose for you. Your son is going to be a great man one day. A man you'll be proud of. You are so beautiful inside and out.
May the good Lord continue to watch over you and your family. You are in my prayers🙏😍😍❤️
Also.... her family support ❤ wow
Your family is a blessing, you are well articulated, you are gorgeous. God bless you
I find most episodes to be extremely sad, eye opening yes but yoh, hayi they are heavy man. I can't stop watching though because you take something from them everytime. I feel like giving you a hug mama❤️. I hope you'll continue to fight that feeling you get now and again. As for your ex husband, unbelievable!
My take away from this is ,not only should she have claimed from RAF but she should have opened a case of medical negligence against the hospital and the doctors who attended to her and her child. I just have a feeling that, the fact that she wasn't stitched up properly and there was debris in her wound could be the cause of the problems she is currently experiencing today with the swelling. Also, if those doctors were worth their grain of salt, they should have picked up her child was blind early and referred him to specialists, it makes me sad that they only discovered at the age of 7 the extent of the damage to his brain. With things like head injuries, early diagnosis and detection means EVERYTHING in respect of how you recover. I really hope she sees this comment and pursues it further, especially for her son's sake financially in respect of his lifetime care. Wishing Ivy nothing but healing and strength
Ok , so If you have blindness from brain damage, what is the cure ? What can a specialist do to cure that ? Also Which specialist deals with such ?
The stitching … if you ever treated contaminated wounds, you will know how not easy it is. Also which specific problems did the debris cause ?
All this judgement and you were not even there during the process. you don’t have all the facts but you are out here encouraging someone to open a case of malpractice. That’s irresponsible and very dangerous. It is damaging reputation of people who do not mean any harm.
Did you know over 2/3 of medical malpractice cases are just bs ? .. meaning.. no case whatsoever. For the remaining third; majority of those it was purely by accident and not intentional?
Here you are trying to taint image of people you don’t even know , without facts nogal! .
@@tranquilsoothingsounds3334 2 out of 3 cases are BS yet government hospitals are bleeding money via claims? DOH Gauteng spent 23 billion rands last year ALONE on claims. She said on the video that had a nurse not inspected her wound again against doctors orders they would have not known what was causing her swelling which was the debris. Someone had to defy orders to administer adequate care proving negligence in administering correct care in the case of the doctor who had to be defied. If you want to be ignorant, do so in your own time and place and don't bore me with baseless responses having no regard or respect towards factual figures. Secondly, they only picked up her child was blind after he spoke to his mother and informed her, there are responsive checks doctors do to check for things like blindness, given the fact that they were only alerted after he disclosed the inability to see to his mother means those checks were not done. Even when they did find out about him going blind that warranted referral to a specialist (A neurologist, since you don't know there are doctors who specialise in respect of treating the brain), which she made no mention of happening so we can assume it was not an option afforded to her. If exercising your right to receive adequate health care is tainting people's images, then you should have a good and LONG look at our constitution and reflect on how idiotic your conclusion is. By the way, you don't have to mean any harm to be classified as negligent. An omission is a form of negligence.
@@thatomotau7504 Wow , I didn’t know neurologists can cure visual loss from trauma to the brain. What treatment is that..? That’s new to me . But then we learn everyday .
I know neurosurgeons definitely cannot cure that . But what does an ignorant person like me know ?
Of course, this is assuming that you are smart enough to know that neurologists in South Africa are not trained to treat head injuries. A lot of those practicing neurologists have never even seen the actual live human brain pulsating before .Again, what do I know ? 🤷🏻♀️
See … problem here is that you are talking like an early referral to a neurologist was gonna get the child to see again 🙄
Secondly, After a very long paragraph, you still haven’t explained what long term impairment or disability has resulted from the debris? Besides the wounds taking long to heal and the scarring of course , which was gonna be there whether debris was there or not. What else is a huge problem currently? She seems to have recovered to me with only a barely visible scar. She is still a beautiful lady.
It helps to actually know what you are talking about before you type something.
All I said was :gather facts first before judging! That’s all .
On that note , I shall not respond further and and go be ignorant somewhere else as you said .
Wow....I pray God heals her and her son.... God is still in the business of making miracles 🙏
I receive a miracle for his son💞
This lady and her family are so strong.
I don't quite have the words but that man was definitely a curse yho, how cruel!
I'm proud of how far you have come and so happy that you had such a strong support system! 🙏🏾🥰
Girl you are beautiful and strong, may God continue to heal you and your son
Yho the lady’s story is so heartbreaking, it’s like I’m watching or listening to a movie nje….
Strong woman indeed. I hope everyone learned from every angle from your story Ivy
The parenting side, the listening side, the marriage side, the seldconfidence side etc. We as men need to treat women better with respect, love and compassion
Your really mentor to many women Ivy❤
Lord keep making this woman strong as she is I pray that her son heal and her healing🙇♀️🙇♀️😢😢😭such beautiful lady🥰
The ex-husband was so self-centred and selfish wew, May we never reach that level of selfishness as human beings, amen 🙏
No ones deserves to go through this 😭 love and light sis ❤️🕯
You strong for real...may God continue to bless and heal you
🥺🥺Sis Ivy you are one strong woman. Sharing your story without shedding a tear/ breaking down..🥺😭May God bless you abundantly with love, peace, happiness and joy. ❤❤❤ Modimo ha a latlhe bana bagage 🥺🥺❤ Ncese sisi
She is so beautiful
Sending love and healing to you Ivy.❤
What a testimony my sister.....u so beautiful my sister.I thank Jesus Christ for making you to survive and live to tell the story.....much love my sister
This is a very sad story that changed the life of this beautiful woman and her son but above all it's evident that God is good and he has the final say in our lives...may he continue to give her the strength she needs to go about on a daily basis and to be the best mother she can be to her kids...this woman is an inspiration that we don't give on life but we take things as they come and trust God to do what only He can ❤❤❤
This was such a heavy episode, I couldn't stop my eyes from tearing
This is so hard to finish 😢...So sorry for what you went through Sis and your son too..God blessed you with you soul though..Stay blessed❤
Big up to the nurse!!
Ivy girl. You are beautiful and strong. What a journey. I dont know u but im so proud of you 💓 💛 💗
You are such a strong and beautiful soul😊....Love And Light❤❤
She is still pretty... we’ll all age anyway and lose this gorgeousness, but hey guess what when you’re 70 you’ll still be beautiful within your age range.
Secret: don’t compare yourself to people decades younger than yourself
Absolutely
@@lindelanimadilonga9902 Nod. Don’t understand why people over 10 years older than you are jealous of your beauty. There are many beautiful people in this world, but they choose to hate you for it.
Mina I say love your beauty despite haters. Don’t feel bad about it, it’s not your fault
@@NN-id8bk so true❤
In the end I was hoping her son would be fine! But God is there🙏
I don't wanna say much, but I think umntu wakhe knew exactly what was going to happen on that day.
Imagine on your death bed and he sends you a message of where can he send the divorce papers, all of a sudden he doesn't know where your home is😭 Banna baswa neng mara
Last sentence 🙈😂
He did 🥺
sacrifice gone wrong
I strongly believe that her ex husband is a narcissist,they do not feel anything.They are cold and emotionless..hence he wanted a baby even while she was not okay.When it comes to a narc YOU DO NOT MATTER!they only care about themselves!
Your family is so supportive. ❤️
