Midwife and nurse, Mthatha

- Maple Ridge Children's Hospital
- Since 1981
- English, Zulu
I've been a nurse for 45 years, most of them in home care at Maple Ridge Children's Hospital in Mthatha. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else.
The thing I'm proudest of is that families usually remember my name. I sing in a choir.
I never expected anything in return, but a kind word always makes my day.

What gifts mean to Palesa: A gift would go toward blankets and small comforts for patients without family.

You looked after my mother at Maple Ridge Children's Hospital in 2001. We never forgot your kindness. Thank you again.
