How cruel of her living a baby on the streets,I’ll live that mother in the hands of GOD,
Ah shame man how does any mother do this to a precious little gift from God, I pray that the mother is found. Lord bless this precious little one
I don’t know how the mother can do that.
Dis genoeg om van siek teword,daar is mense soos ek en my man wat bid vir so geskenk van God ons sukkel al 7 jaar,God gee een vrou n wondelikke geskenk en wat maak sy,vat 9maande van God se werk en gooi dit trug in sy gesig,hoop daai ondankbaare moeder word gevind…
Leaving a newborn baby next to the road is barbaric. It does not matter how poor or underprivaledge a person is, you do not abandon a baby or child like that – take it to a hospital or church if you’re not near a facility! Precaution MUST be taken if you do not want a baby. Women that abandon newborn babies like this should be sterilised.
What a sad story. Wish i could just cuddle her. My daughter is just over 18 months and i still have most of her newborn stuff. Willing to donate it to this little one. Contact me on lucet.kok@gmail.com.

Dit maak my hartjie so seer. Kan dit nie glo nie. Ek is een van die ongelukkige meisies wat enigeiets sal doen om so ‘n klein geskenkie te he en ander “so called” vrouens gooi hulle sin weg. Hoop meisiekind kry ‘n familie wat mooi na haar sal kyk en dat sy gesond is. Gelukkig weet ek die Here sal voorsien en sy hande om haar vou.
