John and Adrie, parents of a little girl who died on Saturday, September
19, after being knocked over by a drunk driver, has donated her organs
to three children.
Nadia Bond, 8, from Kraaifontein, Cape Town was walking to a house
nearby to visit a friend when she was hit by a car on Friday, September
18. She died the next day in hospital. Her heartbroken father John Bond
said she suffered internal bleeding, a broken neck and extensive brain
damage.
Bond said the driver transported his daughter to the
Kraaifontein Day Hospital without calling an ambulance. He said the
family only heard she had been injured when they got a call to say their
daughter was at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital.
John wrote on social media:
"Nothing stops it from being real now, no more hope, you’re gone but I
still hear you calling. And I don’t know where to look, baby, I can’t
find you…"
Nadia’s mother Adrie said her family received a call from staff at the
Red Cross informing them that Nadia’s liver and kidneys were a
successful match for three other children.
"She is a real angel,” Adrie said.
The family decided to donate Nadia’s organs because they felt that
saving other children’s lives was what she would have wanted.
Police spokesperson Noloyiso Rwexana said a case of culpable homicide
was being investigated. Bradley Gysman, 22, appeared in the Kuils River
Magistrate’s Court on Monday in connection with Nadia’s death. Gysman
was granted bail of R2000.
