Tragedie én hoop vir die Odendaalgesin
Polokwane Observer
|September 04, 2025
'n Ongeluk gebeur in 'n oogwink en bring dikwels lewensveranderende gevolge. Niemand beplan daarvoor nie, en niemand vra daarvoor nie. Meestal is die eindresultaat verlies van lewe, mobiliteit of eiendom. Soms spruit daar egter ook iets goeds uit: ander mense se lewens word gered.
Die Odendaal-gesin het in Maart 2024 binne enkele minute hul lewens, tydelike mobiliteit én geliefdes verloor.
Cornie Odendaal het saam met haar man, Gideon, en hul jongste dogter, Riana (38), Pretoria toe gereis om Gideon se ma se 105de verjaardag te vier.
"Ons het vroeg die oggend gery en was teen vyfuur op pad terug. Die volgende oomblik kom 'n voertuig van voor af, ons kon niks doen nie," onthou sy die tragiese dag.
Kort ná die botsing het Riana, wat agter haar pa gesit het, nog gesê sy is reg, al voel dit of "naalde en spelde" in haar bene steek. Gideon kon nie beweeg nie, en Cornie het gesukkel om asem te kry.
