There really is no limit to the love of a mother and Siduduze is a great example that. When she was five months’ pregnant, she found out that her baby had Hydrocephalus or “water on the brain”. Her doctors suggested she terminate her pregnancy, but she decided to keep the baby and Jedidiah was born in August 2020. He’s the light of his mother’s life, but there’s no getting away from the fact that it’s been a struggle for Siduduze, who is a single mother. This is their story. Hot Cares

We all celebrated Mother’s Day recently and it was a timely reminder of how important mothers are in our lives.

That’s the feeling that struck us here at Hot Cares, when we received an email from a concerned work colleague of Leonard Ruck, telling us about his nine-year-old daughter, Hannah. This is her story.

“There is no bigger gift you can give someone than their eyesight,” said Elise’s email when it reached Hot Cares towards the end of last year.
